[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 177/180] ext4: fix accidental flag aliasing in ext4_map_blocks flags

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



3.16.7-ckt11 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx>

commit bd30d702fc320085f178d22866b32fdc4736c991 upstream.

Commit b8a8684502a0f introduced an accidental flag aliasing between
EXT4_EX_NOCACHE and EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_CONVERT_UNWRITTEN.

Fortunately, this didn't introduce any untorward side effects --- we
got lucky.  Nevertheless, fix this and leave a warning to hopefully
avoid this from happening in the future.
