Fixes: 85e0c4e89c1b "jbd2: if the journal is aborted then don't allow update of the log tail" If journal is dirty when mount, it will be replayed but jbd2 sb log tail cannot be updated to mark a new start because journal->j_flags has already been set with JBD2_ABORT first in journal_init_common. When a new transaction is committed, it will be recorded in block 1 first(journal->j_tail is set to 1 in journal_reset). If emergency restart again before journal super block is updated unfortunately, the new recorded trans will not be replayed in the next mount. It is danerous which may lead to metadata corruption for file system.
