In the presence of multi-order entries the typical
pagevec_lookup_entries() pattern may loop forever:
while (index < end && pagevec_lookup_entries(&pvec, mapping, index,
min(end - index, (pgoff_t)PAGEVEC_SIZE),
indices)) {
...
for (i = 0; i < pagevec_count(&pvec); i++) {
index = indices[i];
...
}
index++; /* BUG */
}
The loop updates 'index' for each index found and then increments to the
next possible page to continue the lookup. However, if the last entry in
the pagevec is multi-order then the next possible page index is more
than 1 page away. Fix this locally for the filesystem-dax case by
checking for dax-multi-order entries. Going forward new users of
multi-order entries need to be similarly careful, or we need a generic
way to report the page increment in the radix iterator.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
