Title:
  On function __find_get_block issue.

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Here is the file http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/fs/buffer.c#L1354
  Very strange here 

  52  */
  1353 struct buffer_head *
  1354 __find_get_block(struct block_device *bdev, sector_t block, unsigned size)
  1355 {
  1356         struct buffer_head *bh = lookup_bh_lru(bdev, block, size);
  1357 
  1358         if (bh == NULL) {
  1359                 /* __find_get_block_slow will mark the page accessed */
  1360                 bh = __find_get_block_slow(bdev, block);
  1361                 if (bh)
  1362                         bh_lru_install(bh);
  1363         } else
  1364                 touch_buffer(bh);
  1365 
  1366         return bh;
  1367 }
  1368 EXPORT_SYMBOL(__find_get_block);
  struct buffer_head *bh = lookup_bh_lru(bdev, block, size);
  *bh is equalized without performing running look_bh_lru and after check for NULL pointer verry strange:
