When faulting in the pages for the user supplied buffer for the search
ioctl, we are passing only the base address of the buffer to the function
fault_in_pages_writeable(). This means that after the first iteration of
the while loop that searches for leaves, when we have a non-zero offset,
stored in 'sk_offset', we try to fault in a wrong page range.
So fix this by adding the offset in 'sk_offset' to the base address of the
user supplied buffer when calling fault_in_pages_writeable().
Several users have reported that the applications compsize and bees have
started to operate incorrectly since commit
a48b73eca4ceb9 ("btrfs: fix
potential deadlock in the search ioctl") was added to stable trees, and
these applications make heavy use of the search ioctls. This fixes their
issues.
