Subject: [PATCH 4.19 052/149] ext4: disallow files with EXT4_JOURNAL_DATA_FL from EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT
From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@....edu>
[ Upstream commit 6e589291f4b1b700ca12baec5930592a0d51e63c ]
A malicious/clueless root user can use EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT to force a
corner casew which can lead to the file system getting corrupted.
There's no usefulness to allowing this, so just prohibit this case.
