    Subject[ 44/54] ext3: Fix error handling on inode bitmap corruption
    3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

    ------------------

    From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

    commit 1415dd8705394399d59a3df1ab48d149e1e41e77 upstream.

    When insert_inode_locked() fails in ext3_new_inode() it most likely
    means inode bitmap got corrupted and we allocated again inode which
    is already in use. Also doing unlock_new_inode() during error recovery
    is wrong since inode does not have I_NEW set. Fix the problem by jumping
    to fail: (instead of fail_drop:) which declares filesystem error and
    does not call unlock_new_inode().
