[PATCH 2/3] ext4: add sanity check to ext4_get_group_info()

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
Date: 2013-06-06 15:41:21
Subsystem: ext4 file system, filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), the rest · Maintainers: "Theodore Ts'o", Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Linus Torvalds

The group number passed to ext4_get_group_info() should be valid, but
let's add an assert to check this before we start creating a pointer
based on that group number and dereferencing it.
