[PATCH 3.16 090/178] ext4: lock the xattr block before checksuming it

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sun Jul 16 2017 - 10:34:10 EST


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

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

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx>

commit dac7a4b4b1f664934e8b713f529b629f67db313c upstream.

We must lock the xattr block before calculating or verifying the
checksum in order to avoid spurious checksum failures.
