If nilfs2 reads a corrupted disk image and its DAT metadata file contains invalid lifetime data for a virtual block number, a kernel warning can be generated by the WARN_ON check in nilfs_dat_commit_end() and can panic if the kernel is booted with panic_on_warn. This patch avoids the issue with a sanity check that treats it as an error. Since error return is not allowed in the execution phase of nilfs_dat_commit_end(), this inserts that sanity check in nilfs_dat_prepare_end(), which prepares for nilfs_dat_commit_end(). As the error code, -EINVAL is returned to notify bmap layer of the metadata corruption. When the bmap layer sees this code, it handles the abnormal situation and replaces the return code with -EIO as it should.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
