Subject: [PATCH 4.18 045/123] ext4: fix race when setting the bitmap corrupted flag

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

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

From: Wang Shilong <wshilong@....com>

commit 9af0b3d1257756394ebbd06b14937b557e3a756b upstream.

Whenever we hit block or inode bitmap corruptions we set
bit and then reduce this block group free inode/clusters
counter to expose right available space.

However some of ext4_mark_group_bitmap_corrupted() is called
inside group spinlock, some are not, this could make it happen
that we double reduce one block group free counters from system.

Always hold group spinlock for it could fix it, but it looks
a little heavy, we could use test_and_set_bit() to fix race
problems here.
