Subject: [PATCH 1/2] nilfs2: fix failure to detect DAT corruption in btree and direct mappings

Syzbot has reported a kernel bug in submit_bh_wbc() when writing file
data to a nilfs2 file system whose metadata is corrupted.

There are two flaws involved in this issue.

The first flaw is that when nilfs_get_block() locates a data block
using btree or direct mapping, if the disk address translation routine
nilfs_dat_translate() fails with internal code -ENOENT due to DAT
metadata corruption, it can be passed back to nilfs_get_block().  This
causes nilfs_get_block() to misidentify an existing block as
non-existent, causing both data block lookup and insertion to fail
inconsistently.

The second flaw is that nilfs_get_block() returns a successful status
in this inconsistent state.  This causes the caller
__block_write_begin_int() or others to request a read even though the
buffer is not mapped, resulting in a BUG_ON check for the BH_Mapped
flag in submit_bh_wbc() failing.

This fixes the first issue by changing the return value to code
-EINVAL when a conversion using DAT fails with code -ENOENT, avoiding
the conflicting condition that leads to the kernel bug described
above.  Here, code -EINVAL indicates that metadata corruption was
detected during the block lookup, which will be properly handled as a
file system error and converted to -EIO when passing through the
nilfs2 bmap layer.
