3.6.11.3 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Namhyung Kim <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 83e03b3fe4daffdebbb42151d5410d730ae50bd1 ]

On the failure path, stat->start and stat->pages will refer same page.
So it'll attempt to free the same page again and get kernel panic.
