[PATCH 4.19 110/170] ext4: fix EXT4_IOC_GROUP_ADD ioctl

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jan 07 2019 - 07:56:15 EST


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

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

From: ruippan (æç) <ruippan@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit e647e29196b7f802f8242c39ecb7cc937f5ef217 upstream.

Commit e2b911c53584 ("ext4: clean up feature test macros with
predicate functions") broke the EXT4_IOC_GROUP_ADD ioctl. This was
not noticed since only very old versions of resize2fs (before
e2fsprogs 1.42) use this ioctl. However, using a new kernel with an
enterprise Linux userspace will cause attempts to use online resize to
fail with "No reserved GDT blocks".
