From: Bob Peterson <[email protected]> commit 778721510e84209f78e31e2ccb296ae36d623f5e upstream.
If gfs2 tries to mount a (corrupt) file system that has no resource groups it still tries to set preferences on the first one, which causes a kernel null pointer dereference. This patch adds a check to function gfs2_ri_update so this condition is detected and reported back as an error.
