We ended up discussing this in more detail on lkml, but I'll summarize
here.
There were two problems. First lock_page() might not actually lock the
page in v4.4-rc4, it can bail out if a signal is pending. This got
fixed just before v4.4-rc5, so if you were on rc4, upgrade asap.
Second, prepare_pages had a bug for single page writes:

Subject: [PATCH] Btrfs: check prepare_uptodate_page() error code earlier
prepare_pages() may end up calling prepare_uptodate_page() twice if our
write only spans a single page. But if the first call returns an error,
our page will be unlocked and its not safe to call it again.
This bug goes all the way back to 2011, and it's not something commonly
hit.
While we're here, add a more explicit check for the page being truncated
away. The bare lock_page() alone is protected only by good thoughts and
i_mutex, which we're sure to regret eventually.
