Did you see any particular failure because of this? Because AFAICS the
buffers cleaned up by jbd2_fc_release_bufs() are only allocated during fast
commit (from ext4_fc_reserve_space()). And the code in
jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() is making sure fast commit isn't running
before we set journal->j_fc_off to 0.
