Theodore Ts'o 76887be2a9 ext4: fix invalid free tracking in ext4_xattr_move_to_block()
commit b87c7cdf2b upstream.

In ext4_xattr_move_to_block(), the value of the extended attribute
which we need to move to an external block may be allocated by
kvmalloc() if the value is stored in an external inode.  So at the end
of the function the code tried to check if this was the case by
testing entry->e_value_inum.

However, at this point, the pointer to the xattr entry is no longer
valid, because it was removed from the original location where it had
been stored.  So we could end up calling kvfree() on a pointer which
was not allocated by kvmalloc(); or we could also potentially leak
memory by not freeing the buffer when it should be freed.  Fix this by
storing whether it should be freed in a separate variable.

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.
