We flush the data device cache before we issue external log IO. If the flush fails, we shut down the log immediately and return. However, the iclog->ic_sema is left in a decremented state so let's add an up(). Prior to this patch, xfs/438 would fail consistently when running with an external log device: sync -> xfs_log_force -> xlog_write_iclog -> down(&iclog->ic_sema) -> blkdev_issue_flush (fail causes us to intiate shutdown) -> xlog_force_shutdown -> return unmount -> xfs_log_umount -> xlog_wait_iclog_completion -> down(&iclog->ic_sema) --------> HANG There is a second early return / shutdown. Make sure the up() happens for it as well.
