Otherwise, I don't see the point in getting the bh_state lock since either jh->b_jlist can't change and there is no need to lock it, or it *can* change and we shouldn't assert if the condition is no longer wrong enough to print the error message. > jbd_unlock_bh_state(bh); > @@ -1380,11 +1387,11 @@ int jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata(handle_t *handle, struct buffer_head *bh) > * of the transaction.
