[Cluster-devel] [PATCH] udf: Avoid infinite loop when processing indirect ICBs

[Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>]

We did not implement any bound on number of indirect ICBs we follow when
loading inode. Thus corrupted medium could cause kernel to go into an
infinite loop, possibly causing a stack overflow.

Fix the possible stack overflow by removing recursion from
__udf_read_inode() and limit number of indirect ICBs we follow to avoid
infinite loops.
