Subject: ext4: create a new BH_Verified flag to avoid unnecessary metadata validation
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f84891289e62a74e9b4942eaad80617368b2d778;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

ext4: create a new BH_Verified flag to avoid unnecessary metadata validation

Create a new BH_Verified flag to indicate that we've verified all the
data in a buffer_head for correctness.  This allows us to bypass
expensive verification steps when they are not necessary without
missing them when they are.
