JBD doesn't like cross-fs nested transactions (it'll corrupt task_struct.journal_info, and will cause ab/ba deadlocks). So it went BUG. Presumably something in the quota updates in -mm caused this. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
