[PATCH 3.17 164/319] ext4: prevent bugon on race between write/fcntl

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Nov 11 2014 - 22:48:53 EST


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

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

From: Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit a41537e69b4aa43f0fea02498c2595a81267383b upstream.

O_DIRECT flags can be toggeled via fcntl(F_SETFL). But this value checked
twice inside ext4_file_write_iter() and __generic_file_write() which
result in BUG_ON inside ext4_direct_IO.

Let's initialize iocb->private unconditionally.
