Date: Wed, 9 Jan 2008 23:51:15 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080109182115.GB11852@skywalker> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1199898469-10369-2-git-send-email-aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Updated patch. The earlier patch did multiple brelse() during failed
mount case.


ext4: Check for return value from sb_set_blocksize

From: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

sb_set_blocksize validates whether the specfied block size can be used by
the file system. Make sure we fail mounting the file system if the
blocksize specfied cannot be used.
