From f39490bcd1691d65dc33689222a12e1fc13dd824 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dmitry Monakhov Date: Mon, 1 Mar 2010 23:14:36 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: fix error handling in migrate Set i_nlink to zero for temporary inode from very beginning. otherwise we may fail to start new journal handle and this inode will be unreferenced but with i_nlink == 1 Since we hold inode reference it can not be pruned. Also add missed journal_start retval check.
