[PATCH 08/51] [GFS2] Prevent infinite loop in try_rgrp_unlink()

From: swhiteho
Date: Thu Oct 04 2007 - 05:20:05 EST


From: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@xxxxxxxxxx>

This is patch three of five for bug #248176.

The try_rgrp_unlink code in rgrp.c had an infinite loop. This was
caused because the bitmap function rgblk_search can return a block
less than the "goal" block, in which case it was looping. The fix is
to make it always march forward as needed.
