From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx> If inode_item_done() fails to flush an inode after we've grabbed a reference to the underlying buffer during a transaction commit, we fail to put the buffer and hence leak it. We then deadlock on the next lookup ofthe inode buffer as it is still locked and no-one owns it. To fix it, put the buffer on error so that it gets unlocked and can be recovered appropriately in a later phase of repair.
