he super. This is a problem because in find_free_extent we just assume that we will find the right space_info for the allocation we want. But if we failed to read the block groups, we won't have setup any space_info's, and we'll hit a NULL pointer deref in find_free_extent. This patch fixes that problem by checking the return value of btrfs_read_block_groups, and failing out properly. I've also added a check in find_free_extent so if for some reason we don't find an appropriate space_info, we just return -ENOSPC. Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik Signed-off-by: Chris Mason !&
