Subject: ocfs2: call ocfs2_journal_access_di() before ocfs2_journal_dirty() in ocfs2_write_end_nolock()
1: After we call ocfs2_journal_access_di() in ocfs2_write_begin(),
jbd2_journal_restart() may also be called, in this function transaction
A's t_updates-- and obtains a new transaction B. If
jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() is happened to commit transaction A,
when t_updates==0, it will continue to complete commit and unfile
buffer.
So when jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata(), the handle is pointed a new
transaction B, and the buffer head's journal head is already freed,
jh->b_transaction == NULL, jh->b_next_transaction == NULL, it returns
EINVAL, So it triggers the BUG_ON(status).
thread 1 jbd2
ocfs2_write_begin jbd2_journal_commit_transaction
ocfs2_write_begin_nolock
ocfs2_start_trans
jbd2__journal_start(t_updates+1,
transaction A)

ocfs2_write_end_nolock

jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata(bug)
ocfs2_commit_trans
2. In ext4, I found that: jbd2_journal_get_write_access() called by
ext4_write_end.
ext4_write_begin
ext4_journal_start
__ext4_journal_start_sb
ext4_journal_check_start
jbd2__journal_start
ext4_write_end
ext4_mark_inode_dirty
ext4_reserve_inode_write
ext4_journal_get_write_access
jbd2_journal_get_write_access
ext4_mark_iloc_dirty
ext4_do_update_inode
ext4_handle_dirty_metadata
jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata
3. So I think we should put ocfs2_journal_access_di before
ocfs2_journal_dirty in the ocfs2_write_end. and it works well after my
modification.
