Jann Horn 88c61805a8 fs: Use CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION() when kernel bugs are detected
[ Upstream commit 47d586913f ]

Currently, filp_close() and generic_shutdown_super() use printk() to log
messages when bugs are detected. This is problematic because infrastructure
like syzkaller has no idea that this message indicates a bug.
In addition, some people explicitly want their kernels to BUG() when kernel
data corruption has been detected (CONFIG_BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION).
And finally, when generic_shutdown_super() detects remaining inodes on a
system without CONFIG_BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION, it would be nice if later
accesses to a busy inode would at least crash somewhat cleanly rather than
walking through freed memory.

To address all three, use CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION() when kernel bugs are
detected.
