Ocfs2 devel - Apr 2015 - [patch 5/9] ocfs2: clear the rest of the buffers on error

From: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn at suse.de>
Subject: ocfs2: clear the rest of the buffers on error

In case a validation fails, clear the rest of the buffers and return the
error to the calling function.

This also facilitates bubbling up the error originating from ocfs2_error
to calling functions.
