Although we merged c044f3d836 ("jbd2: abort journal if free a async
write error metadata buffer"), there is a race between
jbd2_journal_try_to_free_buffers() and jbd2_journal_destroy(), so the
jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() may still fail to detect the buffer write
io error flag which may lead to filesystem inconsistency.
jbd2_journal_try_to_free_buffers() ext4_put_super()
jbd2_journal_destroy()
__jbd2_journal_remove_checkpoint()
detect buffer write error jbd2_log_do_checkpoint()
jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail()
<--- lead to inconsistency
jbd2_journal_abort()
Fix this issue by introducing a new atomic flag which only have one
JBD2_CHECKPOINT_IO_ERROR bit now, and set it in
__jbd2_journal_remove_checkpoint() when freeing a checkpoint buffer
which has write_io_error flag. Then jbd2_journal_destroy() will detect
this mark and abort the journal to prevent updating log tail.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
