[patch 091/104] ext4: Do mballoc init before doing filesystemrecovery

From: Greg KH
Date: Wed Dec 03 2008 - 15:26:55 EST


2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

(cherry picked from commit c2774d84fd6cab2bfa2a2fae0b1ca8d8ebde48a2)

During filesystem recovery we may be doing a truncate
which expects some of the mballoc data structures to
be initialized. So do ext4_mb_init before recovery.
