    fs: Use CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION() when kernel bugs are detected
    
    [ Upstream commit 47d586913f2abec4d240bae33417f537fda987ec ]
    
    Currently, filp_close() and generic_shutdown_super() use printk() to log
    messages when bugs are detected. This is problematic because infrastructure
    like syzkaller has no idea that this message indicates a bug.
    In addition, some people explicitly want their kernels to BUG() when kernel
    data corruption has been detected (CONFIG_BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION).
    And finally, when generic_shutdown_super() detects remaining inodes on a
    system without CONFIG_BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION, it would be nice if later
    accesses to a busy inode would at least crash somewhat cleanly rather than
    walking through freed memory.
    
    To address all three, use CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION() when kernel bugs are
    detected.
