ext3: make sure inode is deleted from orphan list after truncate
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
As Ted pointed out, it can happen that ext3_truncate() returns without
removing inode from orphan list.  This way we could in some rare cases
(like when we get ENOMEM from an allocation in ext3_truncate called
because of failed ext3_write_begin) leave the inode on orphan list and
that triggers assertion failure on umount.

So make ext3_truncate() always remove inode from in-memory orphan list.
