[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 4/6] ext2: fix sleeping in atomic bugs on error

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Tue Sep 28 2021 - 02:03:28 EST


From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 372d1f3e1bfede719864d0d1fbf3146b1e638c88 ]

The ext2_error() function syncs the filesystem so it sleeps. The caller
is holding a spinlock so it's not allowed to sleep.

ext2_statfs() <- disables preempt
-> ext2_count_free_blocks()
-> ext2_get_group_desc()

Fix this by using WARN() to print an error message and a stack trace
instead of using ext2_error().
