ext4: cleanup in-core orphan list if ext4_truncate() failed to get a transaction handle

Browse source

commit b9a037b7f3 upstream.

In ext4_orphan_cleanup(), if ext4_truncate() failed to get a transaction
handle, it didn't remove the inode from the in-core orphan list, which
may probably trigger below error dump in ext4_destroy_inode() during the
final iput() and could lead to memory corruption on the later orphan
list changes.

 EXT4-fs (sda): Inode 6291467 (00000000b8247c67): orphan list check failed!

This patch fix this by cleanup in-core orphan list manually if
ext4_truncate() return error.
