    ext4: avoid allocating blocks from corrupted group in ext4_mb_try_best_found()
    
    [ Upstream commit 4530b3660d396a646aad91a787b6ab37cf604b53 ]
    
    Determine if the group block bitmap is corrupted before using ac_b_ex in
    ext4_mb_try_best_found() to avoid allocating blocks from a group with a
    corrupted block bitmap in the following concurrency and making the
    situation worse.
    
    ext4_mb_regular_allocator
      ext4_lock_group(sb, group)
      ext4_mb_good_group
       // check if the group bbitmap is corrupted
      ext4_mb_complex_scan_group
       // Scan group gets ac_b_ex but doesn't use it
      ext4_unlock_group(sb, group)
                               ext4_mark_group_bitmap_corrupted(group)
                               // The block bitmap was corrupted during
                               // the group unlock gap.
      ext4_mb_try_best_found
        ext4_lock_group(ac->ac_sb, group)
        ext4_mb_use_best_found
          mb_mark_used
          // Allocating blocks in block bitmap corrupted group
