From: Filipe Manana <fdmanana@xxxxxxxx> commit 7a6b75b79902e47f46328b57733f2604774fa2d9 upstream. During log replay, when processing inode references, if we get an error when looking up for an extended reference at __add_inode_ref(), we ignore it and proceed, returning success (0) if no other error happens after the lookup. This is obviously wrong because in case an extended reference exists and it encodes some name not in the log, we need to unlink it, otherwise the filesystem state will not match the state it had after the last fsync. So just make __add_inode_ref() return an error it gets from the extended reference lookup.
