From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx> Wengang Wang was trying to work through a buffer log item by consulting the ondisk format documentation, and was confused by the formula given in section 14.3.14 regarding the size of blf_data_map, aka the dirty bitmap for buffer log items. We noticed that the documentation doesn't match what the kernel actually does, so let's fix this. Reported-by: Wengang Wang <wen.gang.wang@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
