commit 897026aaa73eb2517dfea8d147f20ddb0b813044 upstream.
While running "./check -I 200 generic/475" it sometimes gives below
kernel BUG(). Ideally we should not call ext4_write_inline_data() if
ext4_create_inline_data() has failed.
<log snip>
[73131.453234] kernel BUG at fs/ext4/inline.c:223!
<code snip>
212 static void ext4_write_inline_data(struct inode *inode, struct ext4_iloc *iloc,
213 void *buffer, loff_t pos, unsigned int len)
214 {
<...>
223 BUG_ON(!EXT4_I(inode)->i_inline_off);
224 BUG_ON(pos + len > EXT4_I(inode)->i_inline_size);
This patch handles the error and prints out a emergency msg saying potential
data loss for the given inode (since we couldn't restore the original
inline_data due to some previous error).
[ 9571.070313] EXT4-fs (dm-0): error restoring inline_data for inode -- potential data loss! (inode 1703982, error -30)

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
