Subject: ocfs2: remove entry once instead of null-ptr-dereference in ocfs2_xa_remove()
Date: Sun, 3 Nov 2024 20:38:45 +0100

Syzkaller is able to provoke null-ptr-dereference in ocfs2_xa_remove():

Reproducer uses faultinject facility to fail ocfs2_xa_remove() ->
ocfs2_xa_value_truncate() with -ENOMEM.

In this case the comment mentions that we can return 0 if
ocfs2_xa_cleanup_value_truncate() is going to wipe the entry
anyway. But the following 'rc' check is wrong and execution flow do
'ocfs2_xa_remove_entry(loc);' twice:
* 1st: in ocfs2_xa_cleanup_value_truncate();
* 2nd: returning back to ocfs2_xa_remove() instead of going to 'out'.

Fix this by skipping the 2nd removal of the same entry and making
syzkaller repro happy.
