commit 90ba983f6889e65a3b506b30dc606aa9d1d46cd2 upstream.

A user who was using a 8TB+ file system and with a very large flexbg
size (&gt; 65536) could cause the atomic_t used in the struct flex_groups
to overflow.  This was detected by PaX security patchset:

http://forums.grsecurity.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&amp;t=3289&amp;p=12551#p12551

This bug was introduced in commit 9f24e4208f7e, so it's been around
since 2.6.30.  :-(

Fix this by using an atomic64_t for struct orlav_stats's
free_clusters.

commit f6fb99cadcd44660c68e13f6eab28333653621e6 upstream.

Make it possible for ext4_count_free to operate on buffers and not
just data in buffer_heads.

<title>ext4: fix error handling on inode bitmap corruption</title>

commit acd6ad83517639e8f09a8c5525b1dccd81cd2a10 upstream.

When insert_inode_locked() fails in ext4_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 the 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().

The tmp_inode should have same uid/gid as the original inode.
Otherwise new metadata blocks will be accounted to wrong quota-id,
which will result in a quota leak after the inode migration is
completed.

not necessary to do so in the .c files.

For a long time now orlov is the default block allocator in the
ext4. 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 is a part of the effort to reduce number of ext4 options hence the
test matrix.
