This patch improves ext3's ability to deal with corruption on-disk.
If we ever get a corrupt inode or indirect block, then an attempt to
delete it can end up trying to remove any block on the fs, including
bitmap blocks. This can cause ext3 to assert-fail as we end up trying
to do an ext3_forget on a buffer with b_committed_data set.
The fix is to downgrade this to an IO error and journal abort, so that
we take the filesystem readonly but don't bring down the whole kernel.
Make J_EXPECT_JH() return a value so it can be easily tested and yet
still retained as an assert failure if we build ext3 with full
internal debugging enabled. Make journal_forget() return an error
code so that in this case the error can be passed up to the caller.
This is easily reproduced with a sample ext3 fs image containing an
inode whose direct and indirect blocks refer to a block bitmap block.
Allocating new blocks and then deleting that inode will BUG() with:
Assertion failure in journal_forget() at fs/jbd/transaction.c:1228:
"!jh->b_committed_data"
With the fix, ext3 recovers gracefully.
