Subject[patch 148/176] nilfs2: fix crash after one superblock became unavailable
2.6.36-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Ryusuke Konishi <konishi.ryusuke@lab.ntt.co.jp>

commit 0ca7a5b9ac5d301845dd6382ff25a699b6263a81 upstream.

Fixes the following kernel oops in nilfs_setup_super() which could
arise if one of two super-blocks is unavailable.
