Baoquan He 8c03ebd7cd mm/gup: fix wrongly calculated returned value in fault_in_safe_writeable()
Not like fault_in_readable() or fault_in_writeable(), in
fault_in_safe_writeable() local variable 'start' is increased page by page
to loop till the whole address range is handled.  However, it mistakenly
calculates the size of the handled range with 'uaddr - start'.

Fix it here.

Andreas said:

: In gfs2, fault_in_iov_iter_writeable() is used in
: gfs2_file_direct_read() and gfs2_file_read_iter(), so this potentially
: affects buffered as well as direct reads.  This bug could cause those
: gfs2 functions to spin in a loop.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
