gfs2: Fix gfs2_release for non-writers regression
When a file is opened for writing, the vfs code (do_dentry_open) calls get_write_access for the inode, thus incrementing the inode's write count. That writer normally then creates a multi-block reservation for the inode (i_res) that can be re-used by other writers, which speeds up writes for applications that stupidly loop on open/write/close. When the writes are all done, the multi-block reservation should be deleted when the file is closed by the last "writer." Commit 0ec9b9ea4f83 broke that concept when it moved the call to gfs2_rs_delete before the check for FMODE_WRITE. Non-writers have no business removing the multi-block reservations of writers. In fact, if someone opens and closes the file for RO while a writer has a multi-block reservation, the RO closer will delete the reservation midway through the write, and this results in: kernel BUG at fs/gfs2/rgrp.c:677! (or thereabouts) which is: BUG_ON(rs->rs_requested); from function gfs2_rs_deltree. This patch moves the check back inside the check for FMODE_WRITE. Fixes: 0ec9b9ea4f83 ("gfs2: Check for active reservation in gfs2_release") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v5.12+ Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andreas Gruenbacher <agruenba@redhat.com>
