If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jan Kara commit 599a9b77ab289d85c2d5c8607624efbe1f552b0f upstream. When we fail to load block bitmap in __ext4_new_inode() we will dereference NULL pointer in ext4_journal_get_write_access(). So check for error from ext4_read_block_bitmap().
