commit 0f2f87d51aebcf71a709b52f661d681594c7dffa upstream. In the most error path of current extents updating operations are not roll back partial updates properly when some bad things happens(.e.g in ext4_ext_insert_extent()). So we may get an inconsistent extents tree if journal has been aborted due to IO error, which may probability lead to BUGON later when we accessing these extent entries in errors=continue mode. This patch drop extent buffer's verify flag before updatng the contents in ext4_ext_get_access(), and reset it after updating in __ext4_ext_dirty(). After this patch we could force to check the extent buffer if extents tree updating was break off, make sure the extents are consistent.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
