Subject: [Patch 2/8] 2.4.20-pre4/ext3: Fix out-of-inodes handling
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org

Don't consider ENOSPC as a fatal error when allocating an inode.  Otherwise
running out of inodes marks the fs as having an error, potentially taking
the kernel down if we are in panic-on-error fs mode.
