Subject: [PATCH 08/11] ext4: Fix end of group handling in ext4_mb_init_cache

From: Andi Kleen <ak@...ux.intel.com>

The first loop in ext4_mb_init_cache can bail out when the end of
all groups is reached. Unfortunately the later loops did not
have that check and could access uninitialized buffer pointers
in bh[]. Add the end of group check everywhere.
