From: Ann Koehler <amk@xxxxxxxx> The extent is active so we need to abort and let the caller re-dirty the page. If we continued on here, and we were the one making the extent active, we could deadlock waiting for the page writeback to clear but it won't because the extent is active and won't be written out.
