Subject: [PATCH] ocfs2: validate i_refcount_loc when refcount flag is set
Author: karti...@gmail.com

#syz test: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master

Add validation in ocfs2_validate_inode_block() to check that if an
inode has OCFS2_HAS_REFCOUNT_FL set, it must also have a valid
i_refcount_loc. A corrupted filesystem image can have this inconsistent
state, which later triggers a BUG_ON in ocfs2_remove_refcount_tree()
when the inode is being wiped during unlink.

Catch this corruption early during inode validation to fail gracefully
instead of crashing the kernel.
