ext4: drop the call to ext4_error() from ext4_get_group_info()
[ Upstream commit f451fd97dd2b78f286379203a47d9d295c467255 ] A recent patch added a call to ext4_error() which is problematic since some callers of the ext4_get_group_info() function may be holding a spinlock, whereas ext4_error() must never be called in atomic context. This triggered a report from Syzbot: "BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context in ext4_update_super" (see the link below). Therefore, drop the call to ext4_error() from ext4_get_group_info(). In the meantime use eight characters tabs instead of nine characters ones. Reported-by: syzbot+4acc7d910e617b360859@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/00000000000070575805fdc6cdb2@google.com/ Fixes: 5354b2af3406 ("ext4: allow ext4_get_group_info() to fail") Suggested-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Fabio M.
