[PATCH] resierfs: fix reiserfs_invalidatepage race against data=ordered
After a transaction has closed but before it has finished commit, there is
a window where data=ordered mode requires invalidatepage to pin pages
instead of freeing them. This patch fixes a race between the
invalidatepage checks and data=ordered writeback, and it also adds a check
to the reiserfs write_ordered_buffers routines to write any anonymous
buffers that were dirtied after its first writeback loop.
That bug works like this:
proc1: transaction closes and a new one starts
proc1: write_ordered_buffers starts processing data=ordered list
proc1: buffer A is cleaned and written
proc2: buffer A is dirtied by another process
proc2: File is truncated to zero, page A goes through invalidatepage
proc2: reiserfs_invalidatepage sees dirty buffer A with reiserfs
journal head, pins it
proc1: write_ordered_buffers frees the journal head on buffer A
At this point, buffer A stays dirty forever
