    afs: Don't unlock fetched data pages until the op completes successfully · 9d1be4f4
    David Howells authored
    Don't call req->page_done() on each page as we finish filling it with
    the data coming from the network.  Whilst this might speed up the
    application a bit, it's a problem if there's a network failure and the
    operation has to be reissued.
    
    If this happens, an oops occurs because afs_readpages_page_done() clears
    the pointer to each page it unlocks and when a retry happens, the
    pointers to the pages it wants to fill are now NULL (and the pages have
    been unlocked anyway).
    
    Instead, wait till the operation completes successfully and only then
    release all the pages after clearing any terminal gap (the server can
    give us less data than we requested as we're allowed to ask for more
    than is available).
    
    KASAN produces a bug like the following, and even without KASAN, it can
    oops and panic.
