Subject: [PATCH]An inlinedata bug in ext4_destroy_inline_data_nolock()

Filesystem with inlinedata will be remounted with read only mode as
follow steps:

1.mkdir tmp
2.cd tmp
3.mkdir a12345 a23456 a34567 a45678 a67890 a78901
4.reboot
5.cd tmp
6.mv a23456 a23456aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

The bug happened in ext4_rename()
3122         if (le32_to_cpu(old_de->inode) != old_inode->i_ino ||
3123             old_de->name_len != old_dentry->d_name.len ||
3124             strncmp(old_de->name, old_dentry->d_name.name,
old_de->name_len) ||
3125             (retval = ext4_delete_entry(handle, old_dir,
3126                                         old_de, old_bh)) == -ENOENT)

ext4_delete_entry-> ext4_generic_delete_entry-> ext4_check_dir_entry()
 find the inode number is illegal and the system is remounted with
read only mode.

When the inlinedata is cleared in
ext4_destroy_inline_data_nolock(),ext4_inode->i_block[] is set to 0,
but ext4_inode->i_block[] is assigned as ext4_inode_info->i_block[] in
ext4_mark_iloc_dirty().Therefore, the inlinedata still exist in
ext4_inode->i_block[] and result in ext4_delete_entry() in line 3125
is executed.
