[PATCH 4.9 14/65] dax: fix vma_is_fsdax() helper
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Mar 09 2018 - 19:41:10 EST
4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 230f5a8969d8345fc9bbe3683f068246cf1be4b8 upstream.
Gerd reports that ->i_mode may contain other bits besides S_IFCHR. Use
S_ISCHR() instead. Otherwise, get_user_pages_longterm() may fail on
device-dax instances when those are meant to be explicitly allowed.
Fixes: 2bb6d2837083 ("mm: introduce get_user_pages_longterm")
