 __blkdev_put+0x16f/0x1b0()

Hi!

While playing with the Linux kernel library I run into this warning.
Root cause of the warning is that the backing file on the host
side is locked an therefore all IO on it results into -EIO.

The question is whether ext4/jbd2 should abort earlier or not.
The WARN_ON_ONCE in bdev_write_inode() triggers as jbd2's do_one_pass()
sets up a dirty buffer_head and fails later.
Then ext4 gives up, calls blkdev_put() and we reach bdev_write_inode()
with a dirty ->bd_inode.

What do you think?
