From 684de5748660e16e185754697ac0afa9e18297f6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Darrick J. Wong" Date: Thu, 11 Sep 2014 11:45:12 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: don't keep using page if inline conversion fails If inline->extent conversion fails (most probably due to ENOSPC) and we release the temporary page that we allocated to transfer the file contents, don't keep using the page pointer after releasing the page. This occasionally leads to complaints about evicting locked pages or hangs when blocksize > pagesize, because it's possible for the page to get reallocated elsewhere in the meantime.
