Subject: ext4: move error report out of atomic context in ext4_init_block_bitmap()
From: Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit aef4885ae14f1df75b58395c5314d71f613d26d9 upstream.
Error report likely result in IO so it is bad idea to do it from
atomic context.
This patch should fix following issue:
