[PATCH] ext2: Mark the buffer as unmapped before reading the next quota block

[PATCH] ext2: Mark the buffer as unmapped before reading the next quota block

[Manish Katiyar]

Hi Jan,

This is in continuation with the previous patch
(http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/20275/) . We also need to set the
buffer as unmapped before reading the next block. I don't think quota
files can have holes, but atleast for correctness, otherwise once we
have read a block, tmp_bh is always mapped even for holes.

  I don't get this. When b_state is 0, then in particuler the buffer is not
mapped. So why clear the mapped bit explicitely?
