The shmem code is trying to drop all the folios attached to a shmem
file and gets stuck on a locked folio after a bnobt repair. It looks
like the process has a signal pending, so I started looking for places
where we lock an xfile folio and then deal with a fatal signal.
I found a bug in xfarray_sort_scan via code inspection. This function
is called to set up the scanning phase of a quicksort operation, which
may involve grabbing a locked xfile folio. If we exit the function with
an error code, the caller does not call xfarray_sort_scan_done to put
the xfile folio. If _sort_scan returns an error code while si->folio is
set, we leak the reference and never unlock the folio.
Therefore, change xfarray_sort to call _scan_done on exit. This is safe
to call multiple times because it sets si->folio to NULL and ignores a
NULL si->folio. Also change _sort_scan to use an intermediate variable
so that we never pollute si->folio with an errptr.
Fixes:

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
