      ext4: always panic when errors=panic is specified · ac2f7ca5
      Ye Bin authored
      Before commit 014c9caa ("ext4: make ext4_abort() use
      __ext4_error()"), the following series of commands would trigger a
      panic:
      
      1. mount /dev/sda -o ro,errors=panic test
      2. mount /dev/sda -o remount,abort test
      
      After commit 014c9caa, remounting a file system using the test
      mount option "abort" will no longer trigger a panic.  This commit will
      restore the behaviour immediately before commit 014c9caa.
      (However, note that the Linux kernel's behavior has not been
      consistent; some previous kernel versions, including 5.4 and 4.19
      similarly did not panic after using the mount option "abort".)
      
      This also makes a change to long-standing behaviour; namely, the
      following series commands will now cause a panic, when previously it
      did not:
      
      1. mount /dev/sda -o ro,errors=panic test
      2. echo test > /sys/fs/ext4/sda/trigger_fs_error
      
      However, this makes ext4's behaviour much more consistent, so this is
      a good thing.
