Subject: [PATCH 1/3] ext4: fix error handling in migrate
Date: Fri, 26 Feb 2010 00:20:05 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1267132807-5882-1-git-send-email-dmonakhov@openvz.org> (raw)
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.
