From: Song Liu <songliubraving@xxxxxx> Subject: filemap: check compound_head(page)->mapping in pagecache_get_page() Similar to previous patch, pagecache_get_page() avoids race condition with truncate by checking page->mapping == mapping. This does not work for compound pages. This patch let it check compound_head(page)->mapping instead.
