<content type='text'>
Currently we used atomic bit operations to manipulate
__JI_COMMIT_RUNNING bit. However this is unnecessary as i_flags are
always written and read under j_list_lock. So just change the operations
to standard bit operations.

Revoke and tag descriptor blocks are just different kinds of descriptor
blocks and thus have checksum in the same place. Unify computation and
checking of checksums for these.

Create separate predicate functions to test/set/clear feature flags,
thereby replacing the wordy old macros.  Furthermore, clean out the

<title>jbd2: avoid infinite loop when destroying aborted journal</title>

Commit 6f6a6fda2945 "jbd2: fix ocfs2 corrupt when updating journal
superblock fails" changed jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() to return EIO
when the journal is aborted. That makes logic in
jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() bail out which is fine, except that
jbd2_journal_destroy() expects jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() to always make
a progress in cleaning the journal. Without it jbd2_journal_destroy()
just loops in an infinite loop.

Fix jbd2_journal_destroy() to cleanup journal checkpoint lists of
jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() fails with error.

<title>jbd2: fix descriptor block size handling errors with journal_csum</title>

It turns out that there are some serious problems with the on-disk
format of journal checksum v2.  The foremost is that the function to
calculate descriptor tag size returns sizes that are too big.  This
causes alignment issues on some architectures and is compounded by the
fact that some parts of jbd2 use the structure size (incorrectly) to
determine the presence of a 64bit journal instead of checking the
feature flags.

Therefore, introduce journal checksum v3, which enlarges the
descriptor block tag format to allow for full 32-bit checksums of
journal blocks, fix the journal tag function to return the correct
sizes, and fix the jbd2 recovery code to use feature flags to
determine 64bitness.

Add a few function helpers so we don't have to open-code quite so
many pieces.

Switching to a 16-byte block size was found to increase journal size
overhead by a maximum of 0.1%, to convert a 32-bit journal with no
checksumming to a 32-bit journal with checksum v3 enabled.

We don't otherwise need j_list_lock during the rest of commit phase
#7, so add the transaction to the checkpoint list at the very end of
commit phase #6.  This allows us to drop j_list_lock earlier, which is
a good thing since it is a super hot lock.

The two hottest locks, and thus the biggest scalability bottlenecks,
in the jbd2 layer, are the j_list_lock and j_state_lock.  This has
inspired some people to do some truly unnatural things[1].

We don't need to be holding both j_state_lock and j_list_lock while
calculating the journal statistics, so move those calculations to the
very end of jbd2_journal_commit_transaction.
