Subject: [PATCH, v2] ext3: validate directory entry data before use

Various places in fs/ext3/namei.c use ext3_next_entry to loop over
directory entries, but not all of them verify that entries are valid before
attempting to move to the next one. In the case where rec_len == 0 this
causes an infinite loop.

Introduce a new version of ext3_next_entry that checks the validity of the
entry before using its data to find the next one. Rename the original
function to __ext3_next_entry and use it in places where we already know
the data is valid.

Note that the changes to empty_dir follow the original code in reporting
the directory as empty in the presence of errors.

This patch fixes the first case (image hdb.25.softlockup.gz) reported in
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10882.

This is version 2. The original patch was an earlier version causing
warnings that I sent by mistake. This version just fixes those.

Please note that I've only properly tested the originally reported failure
case (i.e. the changes to ext3_dx_find_entry).

Reviewers may want to pay particular attention to the changes to do_split,
make_indexed_dir and empty_dir. I've tried to follow the original code's
error handling conventions, as noted above for empty_dir, but I'm not sure
this is the best way to do things.
