Subject: ext4: fix error handling on inode bitmap corruption
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=acd6ad83517639e8f09a8c5525b1dccd81cd2a10;p=linux-beck.git

ext4: fix error handling on inode bitmap corruption

When insert_inode_locked() fails in ext4_new_inode() it most likely means inode
bitmap got corrupted and we allocated again inode which is already in use. Also
doing unlock_new_inode() during error recovery is wrong since the inode does
not have I_NEW set. Fix the problem by jumping to fail: (instead of fail_drop:)
which declares filesystem error and does not call unlock_new_inode().
