Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) cb995f4eeb filemap: Handle sibling entries in filemap_get_read_batch() 
If a read races with an invalidation followed by another read, it is
possible for a folio to be replaced with a higher-order folio.  If that
happens, we'll see a sibling entry for the new folio in the next iteration
of the loop.  This manifests as a NULL pointer dereference while holding
the RCU read lock.

Handle this by simply returning.  The next call will find the new folio
and handle it correctly.  The other ways of handling this rare race are
more complex and it's just not worth it.

README 

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 Restructured Text 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.
