Vishal Moola (Oracle) f95a2ec3ec mm: fix filemap_get_folios_contig returning batches of identical folios
commit 8ab1b16023961dc640023b10436d282f905835ad upstream.

filemap_get_folios_contig() is supposed to return distinct folios found
within [start, end].  Large folios in the Xarray become multi-index
entries.  xas_next() can iterate through the sub-indexes before finding a
sibling entry and breaking out of the loop.

This can result in a returned folio_batch containing an indeterminate
number of duplicate folios, which forces the callers to skeptically handle
the returned batch.  This is inefficient and incurs a large maintenance
overhead.

We can fix this by calling xas_advance() after we have successfully adding
a folio to the batch to ensure our Xarray is positioned such that it will
correctly find the next folio - similar to filemap_get_read_batch().

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.
