From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Mon, 11 Dec 2017 04:44:11 +0000 (-0500) Subject: ext4: add missing error check in __ext4_new_inode() X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0228af23dd6962c16682d85fdf1bab6bbf77a007;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git ext4: add missing error check in __ext4_new_inode() commit 996fc4477a0ea28226b30d175f053fb6f9a4fa36 upstream. It's possible for ext4_get_acl() to return an ERR_PTR. So we need to add a check for this case in __ext4_new_inode(). Otherwise on an error we can end up oops the kernel. This was getting triggered by xfstests generic/388, which is a test which exercises the shutdown code path.
