ext4: check for allocation block validity with block group locked
With commit 044e6e3d: "ext4: don't update checksum of new initialized bitmaps" the buffer valid bit will get set without actually setting up the checksum for the allocation bitmap, since the checksum will get calculated once we actually allocate an inode or block. If we are doing this, then we need to (re-)check the verified bit after we take the block group lock. Otherwise, we could race with another process reading and verifying the bitmap, which would then complain about the checksum being invalid. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1780137Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@kernel.org
