From: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx> commit 83fe6b18b8d04c6c849379005e1679bac9752466 upstream. Assertion checks in jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() are known to be racy but we don't want to be grabbing locks just for them. We thus recheck them under b_state_lock only if it looks like they would fail. Annotate the checks with data_race().
