Determine if the group block bitmap is corrupted before using ac_b_ex in
ext4_mb_try_best_found() to avoid allocating blocks from a group with a
corrupted block bitmap in the following concurrency and making the
situation worse.
ext4_mb_regular_allocator
ext4_lock_group(sb, group)
ext4_mb_good_group
// check if the group bbitmap is corrupted
ext4_mb_complex_scan_group
// Scan group gets ac_b_ex but doesn't use it
ext4_unlock_group(sb, group)
ext4_mark_group_bitmap_corrupted(group)
// The block bitmap was corrupted during
// the group unlock gap.
ext4_mb_try_best_found
ext4_lock_group(ac->ac_sb, group)
ext4_mb_use_best_found
mb_mark_used
// Allocating blocks in block bitmap corrupted group

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.
