While running "./check -I 200 generic/475" it sometimes gives below
kernel BUG(). Ideally we should not call ext4_write_inline_data() if
ext4_create_inline_data() has failed.
<log snip>
[73131.453234] kernel BUG at fs/ext4/inline.c:223!
<code snip>
212 static void ext4_write_inline_data(struct inode *inode, struct ext4_iloc *iloc,
213 void *buffer, loff_t pos, unsigned int len)
214 {
<...>
223 BUG_ON(!EXT4_I(inode)->i_inline_off);
224 BUG_ON(pos + len > EXT4_I(inode)->i_inline_size);
This patch handles the error and prints out a emergency msg saying potential
data loss for the given inode (since we couldn't restore the original
inline_data due to some previous error).
[ 9571.070313] EXT4-fs (dm-0): error restoring inline_data for inode -- potential data loss! (inode 1703982, error -30)
