fs: use nth_page() in place of direct struct page manipulation

Browse source

commit 8db0ec791f upstream.

When dealing with hugetlb pages, struct page is not guaranteed to be
contiguous on SPARSEMEM without VMEMMAP.  Use nth_page() to handle it
properly.

Without the fix, a wrong subpage might be checked for HWPoison, causing wrong
number of bytes of a page copied to user space. No bug is reported. The fix
comes from code inspection.
