From 1139575a927010390c6b38e4215a6d741b056074 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Sat, 9 Feb 2013 16:27:09 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: start handle at the last possible moment when creating inodes In ext4_{create,mknod,mkdir,symlink}(), don't start the journal handle until the inode has been succesfully allocated. In order to do this, we need to start the handle in the ext4_new_inode(). So create a new variant of this function, ext4_new_inode_start_handle(), so the handle can be created at the last possible minute, before we need to modify the inode allocation bitmap block.
