Wong" <darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx> Message-ID: <20170917210712.10804-19-hch@xxxxxx> From: "Darrick J. Wong" <darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 8204f8ddaafafcae074746fcf2a05a45e6827603 upstream. Way back when we established inode block-map redo log items, it was discovered that we needed to prevent the VFS from evicting inodes during log recovery because any given inode might be have bmap redo items to replay even if the inode has no link count and is ultimately deleted, and any eviction of an unlinked inode causes the inode to be truncated and freed too early. To make this possible, we set MS_ACTIVE so that inodes would not be torn down immediately upon release. Unfortunately, this also results in the quota inodes not being released at all if a later part of the mount process should fail, because we never reclaim the inodes. So, set MS_ACTIVE right before we do the last part of log recovery and clear it immediately after we finish the log recovery so that everything will be torn down properly if we abort the mount.
