ceph: assert loop invariants in ceph_writepages_start()
If `locked_pages` is zero, the page array must not be allocated: ceph_process_folio_batch() uses `locked_pages` to decide when to allocate `pages`, and redundant allocations trigger ceph_allocate_page_array()'s BUG_ON(), resulting in a worker oops (and writeback stall) or even a kernel panic. Consequently, the main loop in ceph_writepages_start() assumes that the lifetime of `pages` is confined to a single iteration. This expectation is currently not clear enough, as evidenced by the recent patch which fixed an oops caused by `pages` persisting into the next loop iteration: - "ceph: do not propagate page array emplacement errors as batch errors" Use an explicit BUG_ON() at the top of the loop to assert the loop's preexisting expectation that `pages` is cleaned up by the previous iteration. Because this is closely tied to `locked_pages`, also make it the previous iteration's responsibility to guarantee its reset, and verify with a second new BUG_ON() instead of handling (and masking) failures to do so. This patch does not change invariants, behavior, or failure modes. The added BUG_ON() lines catch conditions that would already trigger oops, but do so earlier for easier debugging and programmer clarity.
