From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Currently when the call to ext4_htree_store_dirent fails the error return variable 'ret' is is not being set to the error code and variable count is instead, hence the error code is not being returned. Fix this by assigning ret to the error return code.
