Subject: [ 10/72] ext4: check error return from ext4_write_inline_data_end()

3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@....edu>

commit 42c832debbbf819f6c4ad8601baa559c44105ba4 upstream.

The function ext4_write_inline_data_end() can return an error.  So we
need to assign it to a signed integer variable to check for an error
return (since copied is an unsigned int).
