revoke_lo_scan_elements() calls gfs2_metatype_check() on every log
block except the first one, but does not check its return value.
gfs2_metatype_check() verifies that the block magic and type match
GFS2_METATYPE_LB and, on mismatch, calls gfs2_withdraw(), which moves
the filesystem into a terminal state (SDF_WITHDRAWN). The function
revoke_lo_scan_elements() keeps parsing the block as a valid
log descriptor, passes the garbage it reads to gfs2_revoke_add(),
and continues with the remaining blocks of the journal in the same
way, eventually returning 0 even though the filesystem has already
been withdrawn.
Check the return value gfs2_metatype_check() and in case of an
error bail out with -EIO.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
