Subject: [PATCH] Stop periodic syncing if filesystem is already
shutdown.
This is to prevent syncing from running ad-infinitum till umount if the disk has been forcefully unplugged.
This is to prevent messages like these from being displayed.

[ 3878.913350] XFS (sdb3): xfs_log_force: error 5 returned.
[ 3878.913362] XFS (sdb3): xfs_log_force: error 5 returned.
===========================================
Note, that even after xfs_do_force_shutdown has been called, xfs_log_force
doesn't stop till the filesystem has been unmounted (and it keeps printing
"error 5 returned" to kernel log).
To simulate it, mount an xfs filesystem located on external disk, and then pull
the power to the disk (non-usb powered disk).
Tested it on latest linus tree.
Now, the kernel log looks,
