[PATCH 5.15 17/45] cifs: revalidate mapping when doing direct writes

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Sep 21 2022 - 11:51:55 EST


From: Ronnie Sahlberg <lsahlber@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 7500a99281dfed2d4a84771c933bcb9e17af279b upstream.

Kernel bugzilla: 216301

When doing direct writes we need to also invalidate the mapping in case
we have a cached copy of the affected page(s) in memory or else
subsequent reads of the data might return the old/stale content
before we wrote an update to the server.
