From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx> When an error (e.g. ENOSPC) occurs during ext4_write_begin() when called from ext4_write_merkle_tree_block(), skip truncating the file. i_size is not meaningful in this case, and the truncation is handled by ext4_end_enable_verity() instead. Also, this was triggering the WARN_ON(!inode_is_locked(inode)) in ext4_truncate().
