[PATCH] nfsd: remove unsafe BUG_ON from set_change_info

From: Jeff Layton
Date: Thu Jul 20 2023 - 10:59:50 EST


At one time, nfsd would scrape inode information directly out of struct
inode in order to populate the change_info4. At that time, the BUG_ON in
set_change_info made some sense, since having it unset meant a coding
error.

More recently, it calls vfs_getattr to get this information, which can
fail. If that fails, fh_pre_saved can end up not being set. While this
situation is unfortunate, we don't need to crash the box.

Move set_change_info to nfs4proc.c since all of the callers are there.
Revise the condition for setting "atomic" to also check for
fh_pre_saved. Drop the BUG_ON and make it a WARN_ON, and just have it
zero out both change_attr4s when this occurs.
