[PATCH v3 1/2] bfs: prevent null pointer dereference in bfs_move_block() v3: Changed the error handling
[PATCH v3 2/2] bfs: ensure buffer is marked uptodate before marking it dirty v3: Replaced the buffer up-to-date check with an error exit by forcefully setting the buffer as up-to-date before call mark_buffer_dirty()
From: Vasiliy Kovalev kovalev@altlinux.org
Detect a failed sb_getblk() call (before copying data) so that null pointer dereferences should not happen any more. We also decrement (brelse) the bh counter in this case.

From: Vasiliy Kovalev kovalev@altlinux.org
Add a call to `set_buffer_uptodate(new)` in `bfs_move_block` before marking the buffer as dirty. This change ensures the buffer is correctly flagged as containing valid data after copying, preventing potential data inconsistencies or corruption during writeback.
