[PATCH 4.16 034/161] ext2: fix a block leak

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

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

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

From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 5aa1437d2d9a068c0334bd7c9dafa8ec4f97f13b upstream.

open file, unlink it, then use ioctl(2) to make it immutable or
append only.  Now close it and watch the blocks *not* freed...

Immutable/append-only checks belong in ->setattr().
Note: the bug is old and backport to anything prior to 737f2e93b972
("ext2: convert to use the new truncate convention") will need
these checks lifted into ext2_setattr().
