2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Dan Carpenter (cherry picked from commit 090542641de833c6f756895fc2f139f046e298f9) This was found through a code checker (http://repo.or.cz/w/smatch.git/). It looks like you might be able to trigger the error by trying to migrate a readonly file system.
