[ Upstream commit 32058c38d3b79a28963a59ac0353644dc24775cd ]
The function call new_inode() is a primitive for allocating an inode in memory,
rather than planning disk space for it. Therefore, -ENOMEM should be returned
as the error code rather than -ENOSPC.
To be specific, new_inode()'s call path looks like this:
new_inode
new_inode_pseudo
alloc_inode
ops->alloc_inode (hpfs_alloc_inode)
alloc_inode_sb
kmem_cache_alloc_lru
Therefore, the failure of new_inode() indicates a memory presure issue (-ENOMEM),
not a lack of disk space. However, the current implementation of
hpfs_mkdir/create/mknod/symlink incorrectly returns -ENOSPC when new_inode() fails.
This patch fix this by set err to -ENOMEM before the goto statement.
BTW, we also noticed that other nested calls within these four functions,
like hpfs_alloc_f/dnode and hpfs_add_dirent, might also fail due to memory presure.
But similarly, only -ENOSPC is returned. Addressing these will involve code
modifications in other functions, and we plan to submit dedicated patches for these
issues in the future. For this patch, we focus on new_inode().

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.
