H A Dioctl.c18788e34 Sat Apr 23 05:07:51 CDT 2022 Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> btrfs: Avoid live-lock in search_ioctl() on hardware with sub-page faults

Commit a48b73eca4ce ("btrfs: fix potential deadlock in the search
ioctl") addressed a lockdep warning by pre-faulting the user pages and
attempting the copy_to_user_nofault() in an infinite loop. On
architectures like arm64 with MTE, an access may fault within a page at
a location different from what fault_in_writeable() probed. Since the
sk_offset is rewound to the previous struct btrfs_ioctl_search_header
boundary, there is no guaranteed forward progress and search_ioctl() may
live-lock.

Use fault_in_subpage_writeable() instead of fault_in_writeable() to
ensure the permission is checked at the right granularity (smaller than
PAGE_SIZE).
