Linus Torvalds ca3cef466f Fix a number of ext4 bugs in fast_commit, inline data, and delayed
allocation.  Also fix error handling code paths in ext4_dx_readdir()
 and ext4_fill_super().  Finally, avoid a grabbing a journal head in
 the delayed allocation write in the common cases where we are
 overwriting an pre-existing block or appending to an inode.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
