btrfs: inode: fix NULL pointer dereference if inode doesn't need compression
[BUG]
There is a bug report of NULL pointer dereference caused in
compress_file_extent():
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
LE PAGE_SIZE=64K MMU=Hash SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA pSeries

[CAUSE]
For the following execution route of compress_file_range(), it's
possible to hit NULL pointer dereference:
compress_file_extent()
|- pages = NULL;
|- start = async_chunk->start = 0;
|- end = async_chunk = 4095;
|- nr_pages = 1;
|- inode_need_compress() == false; <<< Possible, see later explanation
| Now, we have nr_pages = 1, pages = NULL
|- cont:
|- ret = cow_file_range_inline();
|- if (ret <= 0) {
|- for (i = 0; i < nr_pages; i++) {
|- WARN_ON(pages[i]->mapping); <<< Crash
To enter above call execution branch, we need the following race:
Thread 1 (chattr) | Thread 2 (writeback)
--------------------------+------------------------------
| btrfs_run_delalloc_range
| |- inode_need_compress = true
| |- cow_file_range_async()
btrfs_ioctl_set_flag() |
|- binode_flags |= |
BTRFS_INODE_NOCOMPRESS |
| compress_file_range()
| |- inode_need_compress = false
| |- nr_page = 1 while pages = NULL
| | Then hit the crash
[FIX]
This patch will fix it by checking @pages before doing accessing it.
This patch is only designed as a hot fix and easy to backport.
More elegant fix may make btrfs only check inode_need_compress() once to
avoid such race, but that would be another story.
