Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 0/8] ext4, jbd2: fix 3 issues about bdev_try_to_free_page()

Patch 1-3: fix a potential filesystem inconsistency problem.
Patch 4-8: add a shrinker to release journal_head and remove
           bdev_try_to_free_page() callback, and also do some cleanup.

Changes since v2:
 - Fix some comments and spelling mistakes on patch 2 and 3.
 - Give up the solution of add refcount on super_block and fix the
   use-after-free issue in bdev_try_to_free_page(), switch to introduce
   a shrinker to free checkpoint buffers' journal_head and remove the
   whole callback at all.

Thanks,
Yi.

---------

Changes since v1:
 - Do not use j_checkpoint_mutex to fix the filesystem inconsistency
   problem, introduce a new mark instead.
 - Fix superblock use-after-free issue in blkdev_releasepage().
 - Avoid race between bdev_try_to_free_page() and ext4_put_super().



Zhang Yi (8):
  jbd2: remove the out label in __jbd2_journal_remove_checkpoint()
  jbd2: ensure abort the journal if detect IO error when writing
    original buffer back
  jbd2: don't abort the journal when freeing buffers
  jbd2: remove redundant buffer io error checks
  jbd2,ext4: add a shrinker to release checkpointed buffers
  jbd2: simplify journal_clean_one_cp_list()
  ext4: remove bdev_try_to_free_page() callback
  fs: remove bdev_try_to_free_page callback
