    ext4: fix ref counting for ea_inode · 1e7d359d
    Tahsin Erdogan authored
    The ref count on ea_inode is incremented by
    ext4_xattr_inode_orphan_add() which is supposed to be decremented by
    ext4_xattr_inode_array_free(). The decrement is conditioned on whether
    the ea_inode is currently on the orphan list. However, the orphan list
    addition only happens when journaling is enabled. In non-journaled case,r
    we fail to release the ref count causing an error message like below.

    Have a nice day..."
