Zhang Yi 9020f56a3c ext4: check and assert if marking an no_delete evicting inode dirty
commit 318cdc822c63b6e2befcfdc2088378ae6fa18def upstream.

In ext4_evict_inode(), if we evicting an inode in the 'no_delete' path,
it cannot be raced by another mark_inode_dirty(). If it happens,
someone else may accidentally dirty it without holding inode refcount
and probably cause use-after-free issues in the writeback procedure.
It's indiscoverable and hard to debug, so add an WARN_ON_ONCE() to
check and detect this issue in advance.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
