If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Lukas Czerner commit 625ef8a3acd111d5f496d190baf99d1a815bd03e upstream. Variable retries is not initialized in ext4_da_write_inline_data_begin() which can lead to nondeterministic number of retries in case we hit ENOSPC. Initialize retries to zero as we do everywhere else.
