From: Duane Griffin <duaneg@xxxxxxxxx> BZ 1065434 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1065434 BREW 7074551 https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/taskinfo?taskID=7074551 Upstream commit 275c0a8f1253a7542ad9726956c918d8a1f694c4 ext3_dx_find_entry uses ext3_next_entry without verifying that the entry is valid. If its rec_len == 0 this causes an infinite loop. Refactor the loop to check the validity of entries before checking whether they match and moving onto the next one. There are other uses of ext3_next_entry in this file which also look problematic. They should be reviewed and fixed if/when we have a test-case that triggers them. This patch fixes the first case (image hdb.25.softlockup.gz) reported in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10882.
