ext4: replace BUG() with return -EIO in ext4_ext_get_blocks
This patch fixes the Kernel BZ #14286. When the address of an extent corresponding to a valid block is corrupted, a -EIO should be reported instead of a BUG(). This situation should not normally not occur except in the case of a corrupted filesystem. If however it does, then the system should not panic directly but depending on the mount time options appropriate action should be taken. If the mount options so permit, the I/O should be gracefully aborted by returning a -EIO. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14286 Signed-off-by: Surbhi Palande <surbhi.palande@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
