Not like fault_in_readable() or fault_in_writeable(), in
fault_in_safe_writeable() local variable 'start' is increased page by page
to loop till the whole address range is handled. However, it mistakenly
calculates the size of the handled range with 'uaddr - start'.
Fix it here.
Andreas said:
: In gfs2, fault_in_iov_iter_writeable() is used in
: gfs2_file_direct_read() and gfs2_file_read_iter(), so this potentially
: affects buffered as well as direct reads. This bug could cause those
: gfs2 functions to spin in a loop.

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 reStructuredText 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.
