Caches from 'ext4_groupinfo_caches' may be in use by other mounts, which have already existed.
So, it is incorrect to destroy them when newly requested mount fails.

Found by Linux File System Verification project (linuxtesting.org).

Makes sense, thanks! Can you please share the test case which
triggered this ? It might be worth including in xfstests.

Actually it was triggered by xfstests themselves but run with fault simulation.
The method of fault simulation is under development/evaluation now, we expect to publish a paper describing it in the near future.

BUG_ON() in get_groupinfo_cache() was firstly triggered by test generic/003, but actually it could be any other test, which uses a scratch device: xftests itself requires test device(TEST_DEV) mounted, so a fault simulated while mount scratch device causes the problem described.

It sounds interesting. I hope that you'll send the information out
to the fsdevel list when your paper is finished, It looks like it
might be quite useful.

Thanks!
