The backport of upstream patch 5dccdc5a1916 ("ext4: do not iput inode under running transaction in ext4_rename()") introduced a regression on the stable kernels 4.14 and older. One of the end_rename error label was forgetting to change to release_bh, which may trigger below bug.

So should this also go to 4.14.y and 4.9.y?
