5.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Kent Overstreet <kent.overstreet@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit b2f11c6f3e1fc60742673b8675c95b78447f3dae ] If we need to increase the tree depth, allocate a new node, and then race with another thread that increased the tree depth before us, we'll still have a preallocated node that might be used later. If we then use that node for a new non-root node, it'll still have a pointer to the old root instead of being zeroed - fix this by zeroing it in the cmpxchg failure path.
