Subject: [PATCH] Ext4: avoid multiple quota reservation when retry block reservation for delalloc
Date: Mon, 21 Sep 2009 09:52:30 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1253551950.9099.10.camel@mingming-laptop> (raw)

Ext4: release reserved quota before block reservation for delalloc retry

ext4_da_reserve_space() can reserve quota blocks multiple times if
ext4_claim_free_blocks() fail and we retry the allocation. We should
release the quota reservation before restarting.

Bug found be Jan Kara.
