Kemeng Shi 7a2e7ae5d1 mm: swap: use correct step in loop to wait all clusters in wait_for_allocation()
Use correct step in loop to wait all clusters in wait_for_allocation(). 
If we miss some cluster in wait_for_allocation(), use after free may occur
as follows:

shmem_writepage                  swapoff
 folio_alloc_swap
  get_swap_pages
   scan_swap_map_slots
    cluster_alloc_swap_entry
     alloc_swap_scan_cluster
      cluster_alloc_range
       /* SWP_WRITEOK is valid */
       if (!(si->flags & SWP_WRITEOK))

                                  ...
                                  del_from_avail_list(p, true);
                                  ...
                                  /* miss the cluster in shmem_writepage */
                                  wait_for_allocation()
                                  ...
                                  try_to_unuse()

       memset(si->swap_map + start, usage, nr_pages);
       swap_range_alloc(si, nr_pages);
       ci->count += nr_pages;
       /* return a valid entry */

                                  ...
                                  exit_swap_address_space(p->type);
                                  ...

 ...
 add_to_swap_cache
  /* dereference swap_address_space(entry) which is NULL */
  xas_lock_irq(&xas);

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.
