[PATCH] ext4: fix possible use after free in ext4_quota_enable
From: Pan Bian
Date: Sun Nov 25 2018 - 22:21:46 EST
The function frees qf_inode via iput but then pass qf_inode to
lockdep_set_quota_inode on the failure path. This may result in a
use-after-free bug. The patch frees df_inode only when it is never used.
