[PATCH 1/5] radix-tree: Fix race in gang lookup

[Matthew Wilcox <matthew.r.wilcox@xxxxxxxxx>]

From: Matthew Wilcox <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

If the indirect_ptr bit is set on a slot, that indicates we need to
redo the lookup.  Introduce a new function radix_tree_iter_retry()
which forces the loop to retry the lookup by setting 'slot' to NULL and
turning the iterator back to point at the problematic entry.

This is a pretty rare problem to hit at the moment; the lookup has to
race with a grow of the radix tree from a height of 0.  The consequences
of hitting this race are that gang lookup could return a pointer to a
radix_tree_node instead of a pointer to whatever the user had inserted
in the tree.

Fixes: cebbd29e1c2f ("radix-tree: rewrite gang lookup using iterator")
