Originally the callers of find_get_entries() and find_lock_entries()
were keeping track of the start index themselves as
they traverse the search range.

This resulted in hacky code such as in shmem_undo_range():

			index = folio->index + folio_nr_pages(folio) - 1;

where the - 1 is only present to stay in the right spot after
incrementing index later. This sort of calculation was also being done
on every folio despite not even using index later within that function.

These patches change find_get_entries() and find_lock_entries() to calculate
the new index instead of leaving it to the callers so we can avoid all
these complications.

---
v3:
  Fixed a typo in commit messages
  Shifted calculations to after the rcu_read_unlock()

v2:
  Fixed an issue when handling shadow entries
  Dropped patches removing the indices array; it is required for value
entries

Initially, find_lock_entries() was being passed in the start offset as a
value. That left the calculation of the offset to the callers. This led
to complexity in the callers trying to keep track of the index.

Now find_lock_entries() takes in a pointer to the start offset and
updates the value to be directly after the last entry found. If no entry is
found, the offset is not changed. This gets rid of multiple hacky
calculations that kept track of the start offset.

Sorry for not spotting this in earlier revisions, but this is wrong.
Before, find_lock_entries() would go up to (end - 1) and then the
index++ at the end of the loop would increment index to "end", causing
the loop to terminate.  Now we don't increment index any more, so the
condition is wrong.

I suggest just removing the 'index < end" half of the condition.

While this one had the check removed already, so is fine ;-)

The condition is correct. Index maintains the exact same behavior.
If a find_lock_entries() finds a folio, index is set to be directly after
the last page in that folio, or simply incrementing for a value entry.
The only time index is not changed at all is when find_lock_entries()
finds no folios, which is the same as the original behavior as well.

> I suggest just removing the 'index < end" half of the condition.

I hadn't thought about it earlier but this index < end check seems
unnecessary anyways. If index > end then find_lock_entries()
shouldn't find any folios which would cause the loop to terminate.

I could send an updated version getting rid of the "index < end"
condition as well if you would like?

Uh, right.  I had the wrong idea in my head that index wouldn't increase
past end-1, but of course it can.

Something to consider is that if end is 0 then end-1 is -1, which is
effectively infinity, and we'll do the wrong thing?  So maybe just
leave it alone, and go with v3 as-is?

Yeah in that case find_lock_entries() would definitely do the
wrong thing. I was thinking the "end-1" could be replaced with
"end" as well as removing the "index < end". But that would
change the behavior of the function(s) to now deal with
end inclusive rather than exclusive which may or may not
be problematic. Considering that I don't see any compelling
reason to eliminate the "index < end" condition.

I say we go with v3 as-is if there are no problems.
