Subject: [PATCH 1/2] jbd2: fix infinite loop when recovering corrupt journal
 blocks

From: Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@...cle.com>

When recovering the journal, don't fall into an infinite loop if we
encounter a corrupt journal block.  Instead, just skip the block and
return an error, which fails the mount and thus forces the user to run
a full filesystem fsck.
