This should do the trick... I've rolled in a couple of other small fixes
that I had pending too. I guess probably page_address() was a macro on
the problematic arches which is why they hit it, but x86_64 did not.
I've pushed the patch to my -nmw git tree, so that it should appear in
the next -next. Thanks for the bug report,
Steve.

Subject: [PATCH] GFS2: Log code fixes
This patch removes a log lock from around atomic operation where
it is not needed, removes an unused variable, and also changes
a void pointer used incorrectly to a struct page pointer.
