[PATCH v3 04/20] ext4: correct calculation of s_mb_preallocated

From: Kemeng Shi
Date: Fri Mar 03 2023 - 04:20:07 EST


We will add pa_free to s_mb_preallocated when new ext4_prealloc_space is
created. In ext4_mb_new_inode_pa, we will call ext4_mb_use_inode_pa
before adding pa_free to s_mb_preallocated. However, ext4_mb_use_inode_pa
will consume pa_free for block allocation which triggerred the creation
of ext4_prealloc_space. Add pa_free to s_mb_preallocated before
ext4_mb_use_inode_pa to correct calculation of s_mb_preallocated.
There is no such problem in ext4_mb_new_group_pa as pa_free of group pa
is consumed in ext4_mb_release_context instead of ext4_mb_use_group_pa.
