3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung.kim@xxxxxxx> commit 83e03b3fe4daffdebbb42151d5410d730ae50bd1 upstream. On the failure path, stat->start and stat->pages will refer same page. So it'll attempt to free the same page again and get kernel panic.
