[PATCH] udf: initialize parts of inode earlier in create
I saw an oops down this path when trying to create a new file on a UDF filesystem which was internally marked as readonly, but mounted rw: udf_create udf_new_inode new_inode alloc_inode udf_alloc_inode udf_new_block returns EIO due to readonlyness iput (on error) udf_put_inode udf_discard_prealloc udf_next_aext udf_current_aext udf_get_fileshortad OOPS the udf_discard_prealloc() path was examining uninitialized fields of the udf inode. udf_discard_prealloc() already has this code to short-circuit the discard path if no extents are preallocated: if (UDF_I_ALLOCTYPE(inode) == ICBTAG_FLAG_AD_IN_ICB || inode->i_size == UDF_I_LENEXTENTS(inode)) { return; } so if we initialize UDF_I_LENEXTENTS(inode) = 0 earlier in udf_new_inode, we won't try to free the (not) preallocated blocks, since this will match the i_size = 0 set when the inode was initialized.
