ovl: fix freeze protection bypass in ovl_write_iter()
Tested by re-writing to an open overlayfs file while upper ext4 is frozen: xfs_io -f /ovl/x xfs_io> pwrite 0 4096 fsfreeze -f /ext4 xfs_io> pwrite 0 4096 WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1492 at fs/ext4/ext4_jbd2.c:53 \ ext4_journal_check_start+0x48/0x82 After the fix, the second write blocks in ovl_write_iter() and avoids hitting WARN_ON(sb->s_writers.frozen == SB_FREEZE_COMPLETE) in ext4_journal_check_start(). Fixes: 2a92e07edc5e ("ovl: add ovl_write_iter()") Signed-off-by: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com>
