Subject[ 21/33] drivers/block/brd.c: fix brd_lookup_page() race
Date
3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Brian Behlendorf <behlendorf1@llnl.gov>

commit dfd20b2b174d3a9b258ea3b7a35ead33576587b1 upstream.

The index on the page must be set before it is inserted in the radix
tree. Otherwise there is a small race which can occur during lookup
where the page can be found with the incorrect index. This will trigger
the BUG_ON() in brd_lookup_page().
