-Subject: fs/dax.c: fix inefficiency in dax_writeback_mapping_range()
-
-From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
-
-commit 1eb643d02b21412e603b42cdd96010a2ac31c05f upstream.
-
-dax_writeback_mapping_range() fails to update iteration index when
-searching radix tree for entries needing cache flushing.  Thus each
-pagevec worth of entries is searched starting from the start which is
-inefficient and prone to livelocks.  Update index properly.
