From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 2b4eae95c7361e0a147b838715c8baa1380a428f upstream. After FS_IOC_REMOVE_ENCRYPTION_KEY removes a key, it syncs the filesystem and tries to get and put all inodes that were unlocked by the key so that unused inodes get evicted via fscrypt_drop_inode(). Normally, the inodes are all clean due to the sync. However, after the filesystem is sync'ed, userspace can modify and close one of the files. (Userspace is *supposed* to close the files before removing the key. But it doesn't always happen, and the kernel can't assume it.) This causes the inode to be dirtied and have i_count == 0. Then, fscrypt_drop_inode() failed to consider this case and indicated that the inode can be dropped, causing the write to be lost. On f2fs, other problems such as a filesystem freeze could occur due to the inode being freed while still on f2fs's dirty inode list. Fix this bug by making fscrypt_drop_inode() only drop clean inodes. I've written an xfstest which detects this bug on ext4, f2fs, and ubifs.
