[Cluster-devel] [PATCH] gfs2: gfs2_read_sb: put gfs2_assert inside the loop

for (x = 2;; x++) {
        ...
        gfs2_assert(sdp, x <= GFS2_MAX_META_HEIGHT);  <--- after
        ...
        if (d != sdp->sd_heightsize[x - 1] || m)
                break;
        sdp->sd_heightsize[x] = space;
}

sdp->sd_max_height = x
gfs2_assert(sdp, sdp->sd_max_height <= GFS2_MAX_META_HEIGHT) <--- before

Before this patch, gfs2_assert is put outside of the loop of
sdp->sd_heightsize[x] calculation. When something goes wrong,
x exceeds the size of GFS2_MAX_META_HEIGHT, it may already crash inside
the loop when

sdp->sd_heightsize[x] = space

tries to reach the out-of-bound
location, gfs2_assert won't help here.

This patch fixes this by moving gfs2_assert into the loop.
We will check x value each time to see if it exceeds GFS2_MAX_META_HEIGHT.
