Dmitry Antipov ecb3f9386f ocfs2: fix buffer head management in ocfs2_read_blocks()
[ Upstream commit 6371a07148 ]

In ocfs2_read_blocks(), caller should't assume that buffer head returned
by 'sb_getblk()' is exclusively owned and so 'put_bh()' always drops
b_count from 1 to 0.  If it is not so, buffer head remains on hold and
likely to be returned by the next call to 'sb_getblk()' unchanged - that
is, with BH_Uptodate bit set even if it has failed validation previously,
thus allowing to insert that buffer head into OCFS2 metadata cache and
submit it to upper layers.  To avoid such a scenario, BH_Uptodate should
be cleared immediately after 'validate()' callback has detected some data
inconsistency.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
