3.16.79-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 7a14826ede1d714f0bb56de8167c0e519041eeda upstream. Currently when the call to ext4_htree_store_dirent fails the error return variable 'ret' is is not being set to the error code and variable count is instead, hence the error code is not being returned. Fix this by assigning ret to the error return code.
