Thanks for the patch. It seems to have fallen through the cracks. Sorry for
that.

I guess this decision somewhat questionable. If the failed commit was
indeed the last one, I guess loosing the last transaction as you suggest is
a sensible thing to do. However if the checksum failed somewhere in the
middle of the journal because of a bitflip or something like that, we
probably don't want to loose that many transactions and rather want to do
fsck and try to recover as much data as possible... What do others think?
