jbd2: don't mark block as modified if the handle is out of credits
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1784409 commit e09463f2 upstream. Do not set the b_modified flag in block's journal head should not until after we're sure that jbd2_journal_dirty_metadat() will not abort with an error due to there not being enough space reserved in the jbd2 handle. Otherwise, future attempts to modify the buffer may lead a large number of spurious errors and warnings. This addresses CVE-2018-10883. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200071Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Kleber Sacilotto de Souza <kleber.souza@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Khalid Elmously <khalid.elmously@canonical.com>
