Subject: [PATCH 4.11 056/114] ext4: evict inline data when writing to memory map

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

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

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@...gle.com>

commit 7b4cc9787fe35b3ee2dfb1c35e22eafc32e00c33 upstream.

Currently the case of writing via mmap to a file with inline data is not
handled.  This is maybe a rare case since it requires a writable memory
map of a very small file, but it is trivial to trigger with on
inline_data filesystem, and it causes the
'BUG_ON(ext4_test_inode_state(inode, EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA));' in
ext4_writepages() to be hit:

    mkfs.ext4 -O inline_data /dev/vdb
    mount /dev/vdb /mnt
    xfs_io -f /mnt/file \
	-c 'pwrite 0 1' \
	-c 'mmap -w 0 1m' \
	-c 'mwrite 0 1' \
	-c 'fsync'

We could try to be smart and keep the inline data in this case, or at
least support delayed allocation when allocating the block, but these
solutions would be more complicated and don't seem worthwhile given how
rare this case seems to be.  So just fix the bug by calling
ext4_convert_inline_data() when we're asked to make a page writable, so
that any inline data gets evicted, with the block allocated immediately.
