If the filesystem has shut down, xfs_end_io() currently sets an error on the ioend and proceeds to ioend destruction. The ioend might contain a truncate transaction if the I/O extended the size of the file. This transaction is only cleaned up in xfs_setfilesize_ioend(), however, which is skipped in this case. This results in an xfs_log_ticket leak message when the associate cache slab is destroyed (e.g., on rmmod). This was originally reproduced by xfs/141 on a distro kernel. The problem is reproducible on an upstream kernel, but not easily detected in current upstream if the xfs_log_ticket cache happens to be merged with another cache. This can be reproduced more deterministically with the 'slab_nomerge' kernel boot option. Update xfs_end_io() to proceed with normal end I/O processing after an error is set on an ioend due to fs shutdown. The I/O type-based processing is already designed to handle an I/O error and ensure that the ioend is cleaned up correctly.
