In ext4_get_inode_loc(), we may skip IO and get an zero && uptodate inode buffer when the inode monopolize an inode block for performance reason. For most cases, ext4_mark_iloc_dirty() will fill the inode buffer to make it fine, but we could miss this call if something bad happened. Finally, __ext4_get_inode_loc_noinmem() may probably get an empty inode buffer and trigger ext4 error. For example, if we remove a nonexistent xattr on inode A, ext4_xattr_set_handle() will return ENODATA before invoking ext4_mark_iloc_dirty(), it will left an uptodate but zero buffer. We will get checksum error message in ext4_iget() when getting inode again. EXT4-fs error (device sda): ext4_lookup:1784: inode #131074: comm cat: iget: checksum invalid Even worse, if we allocate another inode B at the same inode block, it will corrupt the inode A on disk when write back inode B. So this patch initialize the inode buffer by filling the in-mem inode contents if we skip read I/O, ensure that the buffer is really uptodate.

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.
