commit eb9b5f01c3 upstream.
If ext4_find_inline_data_nolock() returns an error it needs to get
reflected up to ext4_iget(). In order to fix this,
ext4_iget_extra_inode() needs to return an error (and not return
void).
This is related to "ext4: do not allow external inodes for inline
data" (which fixes CVE-2018-11412) in that in the errors=continue
case, it would be useful to for userspace to receive an error
indicating that file system is corrupted.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
