ext4: check for zero length extent
Explicitly test for an extent whose length is zero, and flag that as a corrupted extent. This avoids a kernel BUG_ON assertion failure. Tested: Without this patch, the file system image found in tests/f_ext_zero_len/image.gz in the latest e2fsprogs sources causes a kernel panic. With this patch, an ext4 file system error is noted instead, and the file system is marked as being corrupted. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42859 Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@kernel.org
