[PATCH 5.9 552/757] ext4: disallow modifying DAX inode flag if inline_data has been set

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Oct 27 2020 - 12:38:46 EST

[ Upstream commit aa2f77920b743c44e02e2dc8474bbf8bd30007a2 ]

inline_data is mutually exclusive to DAX so enabling both of them triggers
the following issue:
------------------------------------------
# mkfs.ext4 -F -O inline_data /dev/pmem1
...
# mount /dev/pmem1 /mnt
# echo 'test' >/mnt/file
# lsattr -l /mnt/file
/mnt/file Inline_Data
# xfs_io -c "chattr +x" /mnt/file
# xfs_io -c "lsattr -v" /mnt/file
[dax] /mnt/file
# umount /mnt
# mount /dev/pmem1 /mnt
# cat /mnt/file
cat: /mnt/file: Numerical result out of range
------------------------------------------
