| 
|				pr_err_once(mp,
|                 "Insufficient contiguous free space for inode allocation");

| So, you need to change the error message to the one suggested, and
| follow 80-character width limits like the rest of the code.

| Also, I think the error message is better at the caller site, not in

| caller decided whether to emit an error message or not."

So, the message here needs to change to what is suggested above, and
the location of the message needs to change i.e. to the caller, not
within the function itself.

Review comments need to be addressed before you repost patches....

Cheers,

Dave.
