    ext4: make sure group number is bumped after a inode allocation race · a34eb503
    Theodore Ts'o 提交于
    When we try to allocate an inode, and there is a race between two
    CPU's trying to grab the same inode, _and_ this inode is the last free
    inode in the block group, make sure the group number is bumped before
    we continue searching the rest of the block groups.  Otherwise, we end
    up searching the current block group twice, and we end up skipping
    searching the last block group.  So in the unlikely situation where
    almost all of the inodes are allocated, it's possible that we will
    return ENOSPC even though there might be free inodes in that last
    block group.
