From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Fri Jun 08 2012 - 01:25:42 EST


3.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Salman Qazi <sqazi@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 02b7831019ea4e7994968c84b5826fa8b248ffc8 upstream.

ext4_free_blocks fails to pair an ext4_mb_load_buddy with a matching
ext4_mb_unload_buddy when it fails a memory allocation.
