From: David Stevens <stevensd@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Remove an unnecessary call to xas_set(index) when iterating over the target range in collapse_file. The extra call to xas_set reset the xas cursor to the top of the tree, causing the xas_next call on the next iteration to walk the tree to index instead of advancing to index+1. This returned the same page again, which would cause collapse_file to fail because the page is already locked. This bug was hidden when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM was set. When that config was used, the xas_load in a subsequent VM_BUG_ON assert would walk xas from the top of the tree to index, causing the xas_next call on the next loop iteration to advance the cursor as expected.
