  ext4: fix potential null pointer dereference in ext4_free_inode (2014-07-12 16:11:42 -0400)

----------------------------------------------------------------
More bug fixes for ext4 -- most importantly, a fix for a bug
(introduced in 3.15) that can end up triggering a file system
corruption error after a journal replay.  (It shouldn't lead to any
actual data corruption, but it is scary and can force file systems to
be remounted read-only, etc.)

      ext4: disable synchronous transaction batching if max_batch_time==0
