Subject: [PATCH v2 08/25] ext4: fix double brelse() the buffer of the extents path

From: Baokun Li <libaokun1@...wei.com>

In ext4_ext_try_to_merge_up(), set path[1].p_bh to NULL after it has been
released, otherwise it may be released twice. An example of what triggers
this is as follows:

  split2    map    split1
|--------|-------|--------|

ext4_ext_map_blocks
 ext4_ext_handle_unwritten_extents
  ext4_split_convert_extents
   // path->p_depth == 0
   ext4_split_extent
     // 1. do split1
     ext4_split_extent_at
       |ext4_ext_insert_extent
       |  ext4_ext_create_new_leaf
       |    ext4_ext_grow_indepth
       |      le16_add_cpu(&neh->eh_depth, 1)
       |    ext4_find_extent
       |      // return -ENOMEM
       |// get error and try zeroout
       |path = ext4_find_extent
       |  path->p_depth = 1
       |ext4_ext_try_to_merge
       |  ext4_ext_try_to_merge_up
       |    path->p_depth = 0
       |    brelse(path[1].p_bh)  ---> not set to NULL here
       |// zeroout success
     // 2. update path
     ext4_find_extent
     // 3. do split2
     ext4_split_extent_at
       ext4_ext_insert_extent
         ext4_ext_create_new_leaf
           ext4_ext_grow_indepth
             le16_add_cpu(&neh->eh_depth, 1)
           ext4_find_extent
             path[0].p_bh = NULL;
             path->p_depth = 1
             read_extent_tree_block  ---> return err
             // path[1].p_bh is still the old value
             ext4_free_ext_path
               ext4_ext_drop_refs
                 // path->p_depth == 1
                 brelse(path[1].p_bh)  ---> brelse a buffer twice

Finally got the following WARRNING when removing the buffer from lru:
