At btrfs_orphan_cleanup(), if we can't find an inode (btrfs_iget() returns an -ENOENT error pointer), we proceed with 'ret' set to -ENOENT and the inode pointer set to ERR_PTR(-ENOENT). Later when we proceed to the body of the following if statement: if (ret == -ENOENT || inode->i_nlink) { (...) trans = btrfs_start_transaction(root, 1); if (IS_ERR(trans)) { ret = PTR_ERR(trans); iput(inode); goto out; } (...) ret = btrfs_del_orphan_item(trans, root, found_key.objectid); btrfs_end_transaction(trans); if (ret) { iput(inode); goto out; } continue; } If we get an error from btrfs_start_transaction() or from the call to btrfs_del_orphan_item() we end calling iput() against an inode pointer that has a value of ERR_PTR(-ENOENT), resulting in a crash with the following trace: [876.667] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000096 [876.667] #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode [876.667] #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page [876.667] PGD 0 P4D 0 [876.668] Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI [876.668] CPU: 0 PID: 2356187 Comm: mount Tainted: G W 6.4.0-rc6-btrfs-next-134+ #1 [876.668] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.16.2-0-gea1b7a073390-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 [876.668] RIP: 0010:iput+0xa/0x20 [876.668] Code: ff ff ff 66 (...)

Having a NULL 'inode' prevents any iput() call from crashing, as iput() ignores NULL inode pointers. Also, stop testing for a NULL return value from btrfs_iget() with PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(), because btrfs_iget() never returns NULL - in case an inode is not found, it returns ERR_PTR(-ENOENT), and in case of memory allocation failure, it returns ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM). We also don't need the extra iput() calls on the error branches for the btrfs_start_transaction() and btrfs_del_orphan_item() calls, as we have already called iput() before, so remove them.
