When I saw https://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=85571, it was
swap write usecase so parital write can not happen.
So this bug isn't related to freed buffer caused by partial write.

This bug is related to unmapped buffer access.

1) user_mem = kmap_atomic
2) uncmem = usermem
3) compress
4) kunmap_atomic(usermem) <-- So, uncmem is dangling.
5) src = uncmem; <-- So, src is dangling.
6) memcpy(cmem, src, clen) <-- HIT
