btrfs: Avoid live-lock in search_ioctl() on hardware with sub-page faults
Commit a48b73eca4ce ("btrfs: fix potential deadlock in the search ioctl") addressed a lockdep warning by pre-faulting the user pages and attempting the copy_to_user_nofault() in an infinite loop. On architectures like arm64 with MTE, an access may fault within a page at a location different from what fault_in_writeable() probed. Since the sk_offset is rewound to the previous struct btrfs_ioctl_search_header boundary, there is no guaranteed forward progress and search_ioctl() may live-lock. Use fault_in_subpage_writeable() instead of fault_in_writeable() to ensure the permission is checked at the right granularity (smaller than PAGE_SIZE).
