Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/3] ext4: enhance extent consistency check

Now that in the error patch of extent updating procedure cannot handle
error and roll-back partial updates properly, so we could access the
left inconsistent extent buffer later and lead to BUGON in
errors=continue mode. For example, we could get below BUGON if we
update leaf extent but failed to update index extent in
ext4_ext_insert_extent() and try to alloc block again.

This patch set address to enhance extent check in __ext4_ext_check() and
force check buffer again through clear buffer's verified bit if we
breaks off extent updating.

Thanks,
Yi.

  ext4: check for out-of-order index extents in
    ext4_valid_extent_entries()
  ext4: check for inconsistent extents between index and leaf block
  ext4: prevent partial update of the extent blocks
