ext4: fix oops on corrupted filesystem
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit 74177f5 upstream.

When filesystem is corrupted in the right way, it can happen
ext4_mark_iloc_dirty() in ext4_orphan_add() returns error and we
subsequently remove inode from the in-memory orphan list. However this
deletion is done with list_del(&EXT4_I(inode)->i_orphan) and thus we
leave i_orphan list_head with a stale content. Later we can look at this
content causing list corruption, oops, or other issues. The reported
trace looked like:

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 46 at lib/list_debug.c:53 __list_del_entry+0x6b/0x100()

Fix the problem by using list_del_init() as we always should with
i_orphan list.
