[PATCH -next v3 5/5] ext4: avoid to re-read mmp check data get from page cache

From: Ye Bin
Date: Tue Oct 19 2021 - 02:37:53 EST


As call read_mmp_block pass bh_check which value is NULL, then call
sb_getblk to get buffer_head. But mmp_block's buffer_head is already exist
which also is uptodate. Lead to compare the same data.
