Subject: [PATCH 4.0 085/148] ext4: fix lazytime optimization

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

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

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

commit 8f4d855839179f410fa910a26eb81d646d628f26 upstream.

We had a fencepost error in the lazytime optimization which means that
timestamp would get written to the wrong inode.
