commit 8d0c2d10dd72c5292eda7a06231056a4c972e4cc upstream.

ext3_msg() takes the printk prefix as the second parameter and the
format string as the third parameter. Two callers of ext3_msg omit the
prefix and pass the format string as the second parameter and the first
parameter to the format string as the third parameter. In both cases
this string comes from an arbitrary source. Which means the string may
contain format string characters, which will
lead to undefined and potentially harmful behavior.

The issue was introduced in commit 4cf46b67eb("ext3: Unify log messages
in ext3") and is fixed by this patch.

<title>ext3: Fix fdatasync() for files with only i_size changes</title>

commit 156bddd8e505b295540f3ca0e27dda68cb0d49aa upstream.

Code tracking when transaction needs to be committed on fdatasync(2) forgets
to handle a situation when only inode's i_size is changed. Thus in such
situations fdatasync(2) doesn't force transaction with new i_size to disk
and that can result in wrong i_size after a crash.

Fix the issue by updating inode's i_datasync_tid whenever its size is
updated.

The overflow might happen when passing blocknr into
ext3_get_group_no_and_offset(), because it expects type ext3_fsblk_t
which might be smaller than uint64_t. This will most likely happen when
calling FITRIM with the default argument len = ULLONG_MAX.

Fix this by using "end" variable instead of "start+len" as it is easier
to get right and specifically check that the end is not beyond the end
of the file system, so we are sure that the result of
get_group_no_and_offset() will not overflow. Otherwise truncate it to
the size of the file system.

Currently ext3 updates ctime in ext3_splice_branch() which is called whenever
we allocate one block. But it is wasteful because ext3 doesn't support
nanosecond timestamp. This leads to a performance loss.

dquot_free_block() is called in the end of ext3_new_blocks() and updates
information of the inode structure. However, this update is not necessary
if the number of blocks we requested is equal to the number of
allocated blocks.

Delete any instances of include module.h that were not strictly
required.  In the case of ext2, the declaration of MODULE_LICENSE
etc. were in inode.c but the module_init/exit were in super.c, so
relocate the MODULE_LICENCE/AUTHOR block to super.c which makes it
consistent with ext3 and ext4 at the same time.
