commit 9e65bfca24cf1d77e4a5c7a170db5867377b3fe7 upstream. The reserved data counter and input parameter is a u64, but we inadvertently accumulate it in an int. Overflowing that int results in freeing the wrong amount of data and breaking reserve accounting. Unfortunately, this overflow rot spreads from there, as the qgroup release/free functions rely on returning an int to take advantage of negative values for error codes. Therefore, the full fix is to return the "released" or "freed" amount by a u64 argument and to return 0 or negative error code via the return value. Most of the call sites simply ignore the return value, though some of them handle the error and count the returned bytes. Change all of them accordingly.

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.
