    jbd: protect all log tail updates with j_checkpoint_mutex · 1ce8486d
    Jan Kara authored
    There are some log tail updates that are not protected by j_checkpoint_mutex.
    Some of these are harmless because they happen during startup or shutdown but
    updates in journal_commit_transaction() and journal_flush() can really race
    with other log tail updates (e.g. someone doing journal_flush() with someone
    running cleanup_journal_tail()). So protect all log tail updates with
    j_checkpoint_mutex.
