This patch&#39;s modification is according to Jan Kara&#39;s suggestion in:<br />
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linux-ext4/patch/20210428085158.3728201-1-yebin10@huawei.com/<br />
"I see. Now I understand your patch. Honestly, seeing how fragile is trying<br />
to fix extent tree after split has failed in the middle, I would probably<br />
go even further and make sure we fix the tree properly in case of ENOSPC<br />
and EDQUOT (those are easily user triggerable). Anything else indicates a<br />
HW problem or fs corruption so I&#39;d rather leave the extent tree as is and<br />
don&#39;t try to fix it (which also means we will not create overlapping<br />
extents)."
