[PATCH] affs: possible null pointer dereference in affs_rename()
If affs_bread() fails, the exit path calls mark_buffer_dirty_inode() with a NULL argument. Coverity CID: 312. Signed-off-by: Florin Malita <fmalita@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
