From: "Darrick J.

Looking through the codebase history, I think this was added by commit 2911edb653b9 ("xfs: remove the mappedbno argument to xfs_da_get_buf"), which replaced a call to xfs_da_get_buf with the current call to xfs_trans_get_buf. Not sure why we trans_brelse'd @bp earlier in the function, but I'm guessing it's to avoid pinning too many buffers in memory while we inactivate the bottom of the attr tree. Hence we now have to get the buffer back. I /think/ this was supposed to check child_bp->b_error and fail the rest of the invalidation if child_bp had experienced any kind of IO or corruption error. I bet the xfs_da3_node_read earlier in the loop will catch most cases of incoming on-disk corruption which makes this check mostly moot unless someone corrupts the buffer and the AIL pushes it out to disk while the buffer's unlocked. In the first case we'll never get to the bad check, and in the second case the AIL will shut down the log, at which point there's no reason to check b_error. Remove the check, and null out @bp to avoid this problem in the future.
