commit e4f9d6013820d1eba1432d51dd1c5795759aa77f upstream. When btree_split_beneath() splits a node to two new children, it will allocate two blocks: left and right. If right block's allocation failed, the left block will be unlocked and marked dirty. If this happened, the left block'ss content is zero, because it wasn't initialized with the btree struct before the attempot to allocate the right block. Upon return, when flushing the left block to disk, the validator will fail when check this block. Then a BUG_ON is raised. Fix this by completely initializing the left block before allocating and initializing the right block.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
