Subject: ext4: fix hot spins in mballoc after err_freebuddy and err_freemeta
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.26-rc1~345^2
X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f1fa3342e271029f93d323ca664809b94594fe04;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git

ext4: fix hot spins in mballoc after err_freebuddy and err_freemeta

In ext4_mb_init_backend() 'i' is of type ext4_group_t. Since unsigned, i
>= 0 is always true, so fix hot spins after err_freebuddy: and -meta:
and prevent decrements when zero.
