From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 4 Jul 2015 22:34:43 +0200 The iput() function was called in one case by the ocfs2_trylock_journal() function during error handling even if the passed variable "inode" contained still a null pointer. * Return directly if a call of the ocfs2_get_system_file_inode() function failed at the beginning. * Rename a jump label according to the Linux coding style convention.
