commit a1c6c5698d53db4c47a25c3a8d11731a4d7b8370 upstream.

Fix NULL pointer dereference in print_daily_error_info, when
called on unmounted fs (EXT4_SB(sb) returns NULL), by removing error
reporting timer in ext4_put_super.

We now initialize the percpu counters before replaying the journal,
but after the journal, we recalculate the global counters, to deal
with the possibility of the per-blockgroup counts getting updated by
the journal replay.

<title>ext4: fix kernel oops if the journal superblock has a non-zero j_errno</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit 84061e0 fixed an accounting bug only to introduce the
possibility of a kernel OOPS if the journal has a non-zero j_errno
field indicating that the file system had detected a fs inconsistency.
After the journal replay, if the journal superblock indicates that the
file system has an error, this indication is transfered to the file
system and then ext4_commit_super() is called to write this to the
disk.

But since the percpu counters are now initialized after the journal
replay, the call to ext4_commit_super() will cause a kernel oops since
it needs to use the percpu counters the ext4 superblock structure.

The fix is to skip setting the ext4 free block and free inode fields
if the percpu counter has not been set.

Thanks to Ken Sumrall for reporting and analyzing the root causes of
this bug.

The mbcache code was written to support a variable number of indexes,
but all the existing users use exactly one index.  Simplify to code to
support only that case.

There are also no users of the cache entry free operation, and none of
the users keep extra data in cache entries.  Remove those features as
well.

<title>remove inode_setattr</title>

Replace inode_setattr with opencoded variants of it in all callers.  This
moves the remaining call to vmtruncate into the filesystem methods where it
can be replaced with the proper truncate sequence.

In a few cases it was obvious that we would never end up calling vmtruncate
so it was left out in the opencoded variant:

 spufs: explicitly checks for ATTR_SIZE earlier
 btrfs,hugetlbfs,logfs,dlmfs: explicitly clears ATTR_SIZE earlier
 ufs: contains an opencoded simple_seattr + truncate that sets the filesize just above

In addition to that ncpfs called inode_setattr with handcrafted iattrs,
which allowed to trim down the opencoded variant.

Split up the block_write_begin implementation - __block_write_begin is a new
trivial wrapper for block_prepare_write that always takes an already
allocated page and can be either called from block_write_begin or filesystem
code that already has a page allocated.  Remove the handling of already
allocated pages from block_write_begin after switching all callers that
do it to __block_write_begin.

Move the call to vmtruncate to get rid of accessive blocks to the callers
in prepearation of the new truncate calling sequence.  This was only done
for DIO_LOCKING filesystems, so the __blockdev_direct_IO_newtrunc variant
was not needed anyway.  Get rid of blockdev_direct_IO_no_locking and
its _newtrunc variant while at it as just opencoding the two additional
paramters is shorted than the name suffix.
