btrfs_cmp_data_prepare() (almost) always returns 0 i.e. ignoring errors
from gather_extent_pages(). While the pages are freed by
btrfs_cmp_data_free(), cmp->num_pages still has > 0. Then,
btrfs_extent_same() try to access the already freed pages causing faults
(or violates PageLocked assertion).
This patch just return the error as is so that the caller stop the process.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
