commit bc2fbaa4d3 upstream.
sbi->s_freeinodes_counter is only decreased by the ext2 code, it is never
increased. This patch fixes it.
Note that sbi->s_freeinodes_counter is only used in the algorithm that
tries to find the group for new allocations, so this bug is not easily
visible (the only visibility is that the group finding algorithm selects
inoptinal result).

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
