+Subject: fuse: break infinite loop in fuse_fill_write_pages()
+Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/3ca8138f014a913f98e6ef40e939868e1e9ea876
+
+I got a report about unkillable task eating CPU. Further
+investigation shows, that the problem is in the fuse_fill_write_pages()
+function. If iov's first segment has zero length, we get an infinite
+loop, because we never reach iov_iter_advance() call.
+
+Fix this by calling iov_iter_advance() before repeating an attempt to
+copy data from userspace.
+
+A similar problem is described in 124d3b7041f ("fix writev regression:
+pan hanging unkillable and un-straceable"). If zero-length segmend
+is followed by segment with invalid address,
+iov_iter_fault_in_readable() checks only first segment (zero-length),
+iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic() skips it, fails at second and
+returns zero -> goto again without skipping zero-length segment.
+
+Patch calls iov_iter_advance() before goto again: we'll skip zero-length
+segment at second iteraction and iov_iter_fault_in_readable() will detect
+invalid address.
+
+Special thanks to Konstantin Khlebnikov, who helped a lot with the commit
+description.
