    [PATCH] JBD: fix locking around log_start_commit() · 37835361
    Andrew Morton authored
    There are various places in which JBD is starting a commit against a
    transaction without sufficient locking in place to ensure that that
    transaction is still alive.
    
    Change it so that log_start_commit() takes a transaction ID instead.  Make
    the caller take a copy of that ID inside the appropriate locks.
