commit 2f012f2baca140c488e43d27a374029c1e59098d upstream. A syzbot fault injection test reported that nilfs_btnode_create_block, a helper function that allocates a new node block for b-trees, causes a kernel BUG for disk images where the file system block size is smaller than the page size. This was due to unexpected flags on the newly allocated buffer head, and it turned out to be because the buffer flags were not cleared by nilfs_btnode_abort_change_key() after an error occurred during a b-tree update operation and the buffer was later reused in that state. Fix this issue by using nilfs_btnode_delete() to abandon the unused preallocated buffer in nilfs_btnode_abort_change_key().

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.
