[PATCH] ext4: propagate errors from fast commit i_blocks replay

From: lty

Date: Mon Sep 14 2026 - 03:26:47 EST


ext4_ext_replay_set_iblocks() breaks out of its mapping loop when
ext4_map_blocks() fails, but then continues with a partial block count
and unconditionally returns success. The fast commit replay caller also
ignores the helper return value.

Stop the count immediately on mapping errors, leave i_blocks unchanged,
and propagate the failure to abort inode replay.

Fixes: 8016e29f4362 ("ext4: fast commit recovery path")
