Subject[PATCH][udf-next] udf: don't call mark_buffer_dirty on a null bh pointer
Date
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

There is a null check on the pointer bh to avoid a null pointer dereference
on bh->b_data however later bh is passed to mark_buffer_dirty that can also
cause a null pointer dereference on bh. Avoid this potential null pointer
dereference by moving the call to mark_buffer_dirty inside the null checked
block.

Fixes: e8b4274735e4 ("udf: finalize integrity descriptor before writeback")
