commit 1415dd8705394399d59a3df1ab48d149e1e41e77 upstream.

When insert_inode_locked() fails in ext3_new_inode() it most likely
means inode bitmap got corrupted and we allocated again inode which
is already in use. Also doing unlock_new_inode() during error recovery
is wrong since inode does not have I_NEW set. Fix the problem by jumping
to fail: (instead of fail_drop:) which declares filesystem error and
does not call unlock_new_inode().

For a long time now orlov is the default block allocator in the ext3. It
performs better than the old one and no one seems to claim otherwise so
we can safely drop it and make oldalloc and orlov mount option
deprecated.

This commit adds fixed tracepoints to the ext3 code. It is based on ext4
tracepoints, however due to the differences of both file systems, there
are some tracepoints missing (those for delaloc and for multi-block
allocator) and there are some ext3 specific as well (for reservation
windows).

Here is a list:

ext3_free_inode
ext3_request_inode
ext3_allocate_inode
ext3_evict_inode
ext3_drop_inode
ext3_mark_inode_dirty

<title>fs/vfs/security: pass last path component to LSM on inode creation</title>

SELinux would like to implement a new labeling behavior of newly created
inodes.  We currently label new inodes based on the parent and the creating
process.  This new behavior would also take into account the name of the
new object when deciding the new label.  This is not the (supposed) full path,
just the last component of the path.

This is very useful because creating /etc/shadow is different than creating
/etc/passwd but the kernel hooks are unable to differentiate these
operations.  We currently require that userspace realize it is doing some
difficult operation like that and than userspace jumps through SELinux hoops
to get things set up correctly.  This patch does not implement new
behavior, that is obviously contained in a seperate SELinux patch, but it
does pass the needed name down to the correct LSM hook.  If no such name
exists it is fine to pass NULL.

<title>ext3: Fix lost extented attributes for inode with ino == 11</title>

<content type='text'>
If a filesystem has inode size &gt; 128 and someone deletes lost+found and
reuses inode 11 for some other file, extented attributes set for this
inode before umount will get lost after remounting the filesystem. This
is because extended attributes will get stored in an inode but ext3_iget
will ignore them due to workaround of a bug in an old mkfs.

Fix the problem by initializing i_extra_isize to 0 for freshly allocated
inodes where mkfs workaround in ext3_iget applies. This way these inodes
will always store extended attributes in a special block and no problems
occur.

The bug was spotted and a reproduction test provided by:

<title>ext3: fix broken handling of EXT3_STATE_NEW</title>

<id>de329820e920cd9cfbc2127cad26a37026260cce</id>
<content type='text'>
In commit 9df93939b735 ("ext3: Use bitops to read/modify
EXT3_I(inode)-&gt;i_state") ext3 changed its internal 'i_state' variable to
use bitops for its state handling.  However, unline the same ext4
change, it didn't actually change the name of the field when it changed
the semantics of it.

As a result, an old use of 'i_state' remained in fs/ext3/ialloc.c that
initialized the field to EXT3_STATE_NEW.  And that does not work
_at_all_ when we're now working with individually named bits rather than
values that get masked.  So the code tried to mark the state to be new,
but in actual fact set the field to EXT3_STATE_JDATA.  Which makes no
sense at all, and screws up all the code that checks whether the inode
was newly allocated.

In particular, it made the xattr code unhappy, and caused various random
behavior, like apparently

	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=577911

So fix the initialization, and rename the field to match ext4 so that we
don't have this happen again.
