brelse() tests whether its argument is NULL and then returns immediately.
Thus the test around the call is not needed.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

<title>fat: work around race with userspace's read via blockdev while mounting</title>

<id>07bfa4415ab607e459b69bd86aa7e7602ce10b4f</id>
<content type='text'>
If userspace reads the buffer via blockdev while mounting,
sb_getblk()+modify can race with buffer read via blockdev.

For example,

            FS                               userspace
    bh = sb_getblk()
    modify bh-&gt;b_data
                                  read
				    ll_rw_block(bh)
				      fill bh-&gt;b_data by on-disk data
				      /* lost modified data by FS */
				      set_buffer_uptodate(bh)
    set_buffer_uptodate(bh)

Userspace should not use the blockdev while mounting though, the udev
seems to be already doing this.  Although I think the udev should try to
avoid this, workaround the race by small overhead.

Fill in the appropriate limits to avoid inconsistencies
in the vfs cached inode times when timestamps are
outside the permitted range.

Some FAT variants indicate that the years after 2099 are not supported.
Since commit 7decd1cb0305 ("fat: Fix and cleanup timestamp conversion")
we support the full range of years that can be represented, up to 2107.

fsync() needs to make sure the data &amp; meta-data of file are persistent
after the return of fsync(), even when a power-failure occurs later.  In
the case of fat-fs, the FAT belongs to the meta-data of file, so we need
to issue a flush after the writeback of FAT instead before.

Also bail out early when any stage of fsync fails.
