From: Zhihao Cheng <chengzhihao1@xxxxxxxxxx> The b_frozen_data allocation should not be failed during journal committing process, otherwise jbd2 will abort. Since commit 490c1b444ce653d("jbd2: do not fail journal because of frozen_buffer allocation failure") already added '__GFP_NOFAIL' flag in do_get_write_access(), just add '__GFP_NOFAIL' flag for all allocations in jbd2_journal_write_metadata_buffer(), like 'new_bh' allocation does. Besides, remove all error handling branches for do_get_write_access().
