Subject: [PATCH 4.19 134/142] dax: Check page->mapping isnt NULL

4.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Matthew Wilcox <willy@...radead.org>

commit c93db7bb6ef3251e0ea48ade311d3e9942748e1c upstream.

If we race with inode destroy, it's possible for page->mapping to be
NULL before we even enter this routine, as well as after having slept
waiting for the dax entry to become unlocked.
