mainlining shenanigans

When a delalloc extent is created, it can be merged with pre-existing, contiguous, delalloc extents. When this occurs, xfs_bmap_add_extent_hole_delay() merges the extents along with the associated indirect block reservations. The expectation here is that the combined worst case indlen reservation is always less than or equal to the indlen reservation for the individual extents. This is not always the case, however, as existing extents can less than the expected indlen reservation if the extent was previously split due to a hole punch. If a new extent merges with such an extent, the total indlen requirement may be larger than the sum of the indlen reservations held by both extents. xfs_bmap_add_extent_hole_delay() assumes that the worst case indlen reservation is always available and assigns it to the merged extent without consideration for the indlen held by the pre-existing extent. As a result, the subsequent xfs_mod_fdblocks() call can attempt an unintentional allocation rather than a free (indicated by an ASSERT() failure). Further, if the allocation happens to fail in this context, the failure goes unhandled and creates a filesystem wide block accounting inconsistency. Fix xfs_bmap_add_extent_hole_delay() to function as designed. Cap the indlen reservation assigned to the merged extent to the sum of the indlen reservations held by each of the individual extents.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
