This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled btrfs: delete pointless BUG_ON check on quota root in btrfs_qgroup_account_extent() to the 4.19-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: btrfs-delete-pointless-bug_on-check-on-quota-root-in.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.19 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit bf02b9e07be6c5fb4e5eb08dc2b4e0538e5bfe8e Author: David Sterba <dsterba@xxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Feb 6 23:20:53 2024 +0100 btrfs: delete pointless BUG_ON check on quota root in btrfs_qgroup_account_extent() [ Upstream commit f40a3ea94881f668084f68f6b9931486b1606db0 ] The BUG_ON is deep in the qgroup code where we can expect that it exists. A NULL pointer would cause a crash. It was added long ago in 550d7a2ed5db35 ("btrfs: qgroup: Add new qgroup calculation function btrfs_qgroup_account_extents()."). It maybe made sense back then as the quota enable/disable state machine was not that robust as it is nowadays, so we can just delete it.
