In 27cfa258951a "ext2: fix fs corruption when trying to remove
a non-empty directory with IO error" a funny thing has happened:
- page = ext2_get_page(inode, i, dir_has_error, &page_addr);
+ page = ext2_get_page(inode, i, 0, &page_addr);
- if (IS_ERR(page)) {
- dir_has_error = 1;
- continue;
- }
+ if (IS_ERR(page))
+ goto not_empty;
And at not_empty: we hit ext2_put_page(page, page_addr), which does
put_page(page). Which, unless I'm very mistaken, should oops
immediately when given ERR_PTR(-E...) as page.
OK, shit happens, insufficiently tested patches included. But when
commit in question describes the fault-injection test that exercised
that particular failure exit...
Ow.

============
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.
