Subject: CVE-2025-21752: btrfs: don't use btrfs_set_item_key_safe on RAID stripe-extents

Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

btrfs: don't use btrfs_set_item_key_safe on RAID stripe-extents

Don't use btrfs_set_item_key_safe() to modify the keys in the RAID
stripe-tree, as this can lead to corruption of the tree, which is caught
by the checks in btrfs_set_item_key_safe():

While the root cause of the tree order corruption isn't clear, using
btrfs_duplicate_item() to copy the item and then adjusting both the key
and the per-device physical addresses is a safe way to counter this
problem.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2025-21752 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
