    Btrfs: fix return value on rename exchange failure · c5b4a50b
    Filipe Manana authored
    If we failed during a rename exchange operation after starting/joining a
    transaction, we would end up replacing the return value, stored in the
    local 'ret' variable, with the return value from btrfs_end_transaction().
    So this could end up returning 0 (success) to user space despite the
    operation having failed and aborted the transaction, because if there are
    multiple tasks having a reference on the transaction at the time
    btrfs_end_transaction() is called by the rename exchange, that function
    returns 0 (otherwise it returns -EIO and not the original error value).
    So fix this by not overwriting the return value on error after getting
    a transaction handle.
