ext3: dirindex error pointer issues
- ext3_dx_find_entry() exit with out setting proper error pointer
- do_split() exit with out setting proper error pointer
it is realy painful because many callers contain folowing code:
de = do_split(handle,dir, &bh, frame, &hinfo, &retval);
if (!(de))
return retval;
<<< WOW retval wasn't changed by do_split(), so caller failed
<<< but return SUCCESS :)
- Rearrange do_split() error path. Current error path is realy ugly, all
this up and down jump stuff doesn't make code easy to understand.
