Hello Joseph, Changwei, Sunny and all,

Could you help to review this patch?
This patch will fix the oops problem caused by write ocfs2 clone files.
The root cause is inode buffer head is NULL when calling ocfs2_refcount_cow.
Secondly, we should use EX meta lock when calling ocfs2_refcount_cow.

Thanks a lot.
Gang

Subject: [PATCH] ocfs2: fix the oops problem when write cloned file

Writing a cloned file triggers a kernel oops and the user-space
command process is also killed by the system.
The bug can be reproduced stably, e.g.
1)create a file under ocfs2 file system directory.
journalctl -b > aa.txt
2)create a cloned file for this file.
reflink aa.txt bb.txt
3)write the cloned file with dd command.
dd if=/dev/zero of=bb.txt bs=512 count=1 conv=notrunc

The dd command is killed by the kernel, then you can see the oops
message via dmesg command.
