3.16.65-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx>
commit 18f2c4fcebf2582f96cbd5f2238f4f354a0e4847 upstream.
If the file system has been shut down or is read-only, then
ext4_write_inode() needs to bail out early.
Also use jbd2_complete_transaction() instead of ext4_force_commit() so
we only force a commit if it is needed.
Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx>
[bwh: Backported to 3.16:
- Open-code sb_rdonly()
- Drop ext4_forced_shutdown() check]
