4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: zhangyi (F) <yi.zhang@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 5e86bdda41534e17621d5a071b294943cae4376e upstream. Currently, we are releasing the indirect buffer where we are done with it in ext4_ind_remove_space(), so we can see the brelse() and BUFFER_TRACE() everywhere. It seems fragile and hard to read, and we may probably forget to release the buffer some day. This patch cleans up the code by putting of the code which releases the buffers to the end of the function.
