[PATCH] ext4: fix use-after-free race with debug_want_extra_isize

From: Barret Rhoden
Date: Mon Apr 15 2019 - 17:20:19 EST


When remounting with debug_want_extra_isize, we were not performing the
same checks that we do during a normal mount. That allowed us to set a
value for s_want_extra_isize that reached outside the s_inode_size.

- In the current code, it looks like someone could mount with want_extra_isize
with some value > 0 but less than the minimums in the s_es. If that's a bug,
I can submit a follow-on patch.

- Similarly, on a failed remount, sbi->s_want_extra_isize is changed to the
remounted value. I can fix that too if it's a problem.

- Is it OK to remount with a smaller s_want_extra_isize than the previous mount?
I thought it was, but figured I'd ask while I'm looking at it.
