[PATCH 3.16 042/346] ext4: validate s_reserved_gdt_blocks on mount

[Ben Hutchings]

3.16.39-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx>

commit 5b9554dc5bf008ae7f68a52e3d7e76c0920938a2 upstream.

If s_reserved_gdt_blocks is extremely large, it's possible for
ext4_init_block_bitmap(), which is called when ext4 sets up an
uninitialized block bitmap, to corrupt random kernel memory.  Add the
same checks which e2fsck has --- it must never be larger than
blocksize / sizeof(__u32) --- and then add a backup check in
ext4_init_block_bitmap() in case the superblock gets modified after
the file system is mounted.

[bwh: Backported to 3.16:
 - Use EIO instead of EFSCORRUPTED
 - Adjust context]
