Hi,

static analysis with Coverity has found an issue in function
ext4_convert_meta_bg() with the following commit

commit 1c6bd7173d66b3dfdefcedb38cabc1fb03997509
Author: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx>

    ext4: convert file system to meta_bg if needed during resizing

The analysis is as follows:

1898
1899 errout:
1900        ret = ext4_journal_stop(handle);
1901        if (!err)

Unused value (UNUSED_VALUE)assigned_value: Assigning value from ret to
err here, but that stored value is not used.

1902                err = ret;
1903        return ret;

I'm not entirely sure why !err is being checked and then err is being
re-assigned and then is not used.

Colin
