Subject: [PATCH 4.19 145/287] jbd2: fix assertion jh->b_frozen_data == NULL failure when journal aborted

From: Zhihao Cheng <chengzhihao1@...wei.com>

[ Upstream commit 4a734f0869f970b8a9b65062ea40b09a5da9dba8 ]

Following process will fail assertion 'jh->b_frozen_data == NULL' in
jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata():

                   jbd2_journal_commit_transaction
unlink(dir/a)
 jh->b_transaction = trans1
 jh->b_jlist = BJ_Metadata
                    journal->j_running_transaction = NULL
                    trans1->t_state = T_COMMIT
unlink(dir/b)
 handle->h_trans = trans2
 do_get_write_access
  jh->b_modified = 0
  jh->b_frozen_data = frozen_buffer
  jh->b_next_transaction = trans2
 jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata
  is_handle_aborted
   is_journal_aborted // return false

           --> jbd2 abort <--

                     while (commit_transaction->t_buffers)
                      if (is_journal_aborted)
                       jbd2_journal_refile_buffer
                        __jbd2_journal_refile_buffer
                         WRITE_ONCE(jh->b_transaction,
						jh->b_next_transaction)
                         WRITE_ONCE(jh->b_next_transaction, NULL)
                         __jbd2_journal_file_buffer(jh, BJ_Reserved)
        J_ASSERT_JH(jh, jh->b_frozen_data == NULL) // assertion failure !

After journal aborting, __jbd2_journal_refile_buffer() is executed with
holding @jh->b_state_lock, we can fix it by moving 'is_handle_aborted()'
into the area protected by @jh->b_state_lock.
