Zhang Yi c599462ab9 ext4: do not set SB_ACTIVE in ext4_orphan_cleanup()
commit 72ffb49a7b623c92a37657eda7cc46a06d3e8398 upstream.

When CONFIG_QUOTA is enabled, if we failed to mount the filesystem due
to some error happens behind ext4_orphan_cleanup(), it will end up
triggering a after free issue of super_block. The problem is that
ext4_orphan_cleanup() will set SB_ACTIVE flag if CONFIG_QUOTA is
enabled, after we cleanup the truncated inodes, the last iput() will put
them into the lru list, and these inodes' pages may probably dirty and
will be write back by the writeback thread, so it could be raced by
freeing super_block in the error path of mount_bdev().

After check the setting of SB_ACTIVE flag in ext4_orphan_cleanup(), it
was used to ensure updating the quota file properly, but evict inode and
trash data immediately in the last iput does not affect the quotafile,
so setting the SB_ACTIVE flag seems not required[1]. Fix this issue by
just remove the SB_ACTIVE setting.

README

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.
