[PATCH] Fix segfault on assembly on amd64 with v1 superblocks

From: martin f. krafft <hidden>
Date: 2007-09-30 12:22:56
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

Commit a40b4fe introduced a temporary supertype variable tst, instead of
manipulating st directly. However, it was forgotton to pass &tst into the
recursive load_super1 call, causing an infinite recursion.
