commitfb265c9cb4upstream. Today, when sb_bread() returns NULL, this can either be because of an I/O error or because the system failed to allocate the buffer. Since it's an old interface, changing would require changing many call sites. So instead we create our own ext4_sb_bread(), which also allows us to set the REQ_META flag. Also fixed a problem in the xattr code where a NULL return in a function could also mean that the xattr was not found, which could lead to the wrong error getting returned to userspace.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
