    ext4: evict inline data when writing to memory map · 59b4a049

    commit 7b4cc978 upstream.
    
    Currently the case of writing via mmap to a file with inline data is not
    handled.  This is maybe a rare case since it requires a writable memory
    map of a very small file, but it is trivial to trigger with on
    inline_data filesystem, and it causes the
    'BUG_ON(ext4_test_inode_state(inode, EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA));' in
    ext4_writepages() to be hit:
    
        mkfs.ext4 -O inline_data /dev/vdb
        mount /dev/vdb /mnt
        xfs_io -f /mnt/file \
    	-c 'pwrite 0 1' \
    	-c 'mmap -w 0 1m' \
    	-c 'mwrite 0 1' \
    	-c 'fsync'

    We could try to be smart and keep the inline data in this case, or at
    least support delayed allocation when allocating the block, but these
    solutions would be more complicated and don't seem worthwhile given how
    rare this case seems to be.  So just fix the bug by calling
    ext4_convert_inline_data() when we're asked to make a page writable, so
    that any inline data gets evicted, with the block allocated immediately.
