nilfs2: fix null pointer dereference at nilfs_segctor_do_construct()
After commitc3aab9a0bd
("mm/filemap.c: don't initiate writeback if mapping has no dirty pages"), the following null pointer dereference has been reported on nilfs2: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000000a8 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI ... RIP: 0010:percpu_counter_add_batch+0xa/0x60 ... Call Trace: __test_set_page_writeback+0x2d3/0x330 nilfs_segctor_do_construct+0x10d3/0x2110 [nilfs2] nilfs_segctor_construct+0x168/0x260 [nilfs2] nilfs_segctor_thread+0x127/0x3b0 [nilfs2] kthread+0xf8/0x130 ... This crash turned out to be caused by set_page_writeback() call for segment summary buffers at nilfs_segctor_prepare_write(). set_page_writeback() can call inc_wb_stat(inode_to_wb(inode), WB_WRITEBACK) where inode_to_wb(inode) is NULL if the inode of underlying block device does not have an associated wb. This fixes the issue by calling inode_attach_wb() in advance to ensure to associate the bdev inode with its wb. Fixes:c3aab9a0bd
