Subject: [PATCH 3.16 123/245] ext4: check for directory entries too close
 to block end

3.16.83-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Jan Kara <jack@...e.cz>

commit 109ba779d6cca2d519c5dd624a3276d03e21948e upstream.

ext4_check_dir_entry() currently does not catch a case when a directory
entry ends so close to the block end that the header of the next
directory entry would not fit in the remaining space. This can lead to
directory iteration code trying to access address beyond end of current
buffer head leading to oops.
