f2fs: fix to release inode page correctly
In following call path, we will pass a locked and referenced ipage pointer to get_new_data_page: - init_inode_metadata - make_empty_dir - get_new_data_page There are two exit paths in get_new_data_page when error occurs: 1) grab_cache_page fails, ipage will not be released; 2) f2fs_reserve_block fails, ipage will be released in callee. So, it's not consistent for error handling in get_new_data_page. For f2fs_reserve_block, it's not very easy to change the rule of error handling, since it's already complicated. Here we deside to choose an easy way to fix this issue: If any error occur in get_new_data_page, we will ensure releasing ipage in this function. The same issue is in f2fs_convert_inline_dir, fix that too. Signed-off-by: Chao Yu <chao2.yu@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@kernel.org>
