A syzbot stress test reported that create_empty_buffers() called from nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers() can cause a general protection fault. Analysis using its reproducer revealed that the back reference "mapping" from a page/folio has been changed to NULL after dirty page/folio gang lookup in nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers(). Fix this issue by excluding pages/folios from being collected if, after acquiring a lock on each page/folio, its back reference "mapping" differs from the pointer to the address space struct that held the page/folio.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
