4.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 3cb9185c67304b2a7ea9be73e7d13df6fb2793a1 upstream. radix_tree_iter_retry() resets slot to NULL, but it doesn't reset tags. Then NULL slot and non-zero iter.tags passed to radix_tree_next_slot() leading to crash: RIP: radix_tree_next_slot include/linux/radix-tree.h:473 find_get_pages_tag+0x334/0x930 mm/filemap.c:1452 ....
