Subject: [PATCH 0/4] ext4 inline cleanup patches

George Spelvin reported a deadlock problem when using a file system
with inline data enabled when it tries to expand the inode's extra
inode field space.  The second patch is the critical one; the last two
are some cleanups.

Theodore Ts'o (4):
  ext4: add debug_want_extra_isize mount option
  ext4: fix deadlock between inline_data and
    ext4_expand_extra_isize_ea()
  ext4: avoid calling ext4_mark_inode_dirty() under unneeded semaphores
  ext4: propagate error values from ext4_inline_data_truncate()
