When doing a journal commit, the fast journal offset (journal->j_fc_off) is set to zero too early in the process. Since ext4 filesystem calls function jbd2_fc_release_bufs() in its j_fc_cleanup_callback (ext4_fc_cleanup()), that call will be a no-op exactly because the offset is zero. Move the fast commit offset further down in the journal commit code, until it's mostly done, immediately before clearing the on-going commit flags.
