From: Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx> When recovering the journal, don't fall into an infinite loop if we encounter a corrupt journal block. Instead, just skip the block and return an error, which fails the mount and thus forces the user to run a full filesystem fsck. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
