Changwei Ge cf76c78595 ocfs2: don't put and assigning null to bh allocated outside
ocfs2_read_blocks() and ocfs2_read_blocks_sync() are both used to read
several blocks from disk.  Currently, the input argument *bhs* can be
NULL or NOT.  It depends on the caller's behavior.  If the function
fails in reading blocks from disk, the corresponding bh will be assigned
to NULL and put.

Obviously, above process for non-NULL input bh is not appropriate.
Because the caller doesn't even know its bhs are put and re-assigned.

If buffer head is managed by caller, ocfs2_read_blocks and
ocfs2_read_blocks_sync() should not evaluate it to NULL.  It will cause
caller accessing illegal memory, thus crash.

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.
