jbd2: ensure abort the journal if detect IO error when writing original buffer back
Although we merged c044f3d8360 ("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.
