Subject: [PATCH 5.17 1024/1126] XArray: Update the LRU list in xas_split()

From: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@...radead.org>

commit 3ed4bb77156da0bc732847c8c9df92454c1fbeea upstream.

When splitting a value entry, we may need to add the new nodes to the LRU
list and remove the parent node from the LRU list.  The WARN_ON checks
in shadow_lru_isolate() catch this oversight.  This bug was latent
until we stopped splitting folios in shrink_page_list() with commit
820c4e2e6f51 ("mm/vmscan: Free non-shmem folios without splitting them").
That allows the creation of large shadow entries, and subsequently when
trying to page in a small page, we will split the large shadow entry
in __filemap_add_folio().

Fixes: 8fc75643c5e1 ("XArray: add xas_split")
