ext4, jbd2: ensure panic by fix a race between jbd2 abort and ext4 error handlers
In the ext4 filesystem with errors=panic, if one process is recording errno in the superblock when invoking jbd2_journal_abort() due to some error cases, it could be raced by another __ext4_abort() which is setting the SB_RDONLY flag but missing panic because errno has not been recorded. jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() jbd2_journal_abort() journal->j_flags |= JBD2_ABORT; jbd2_journal_update_sb_errno() | ext4_journal_check_start() | __ext4_abort() | sb->s_flags |= SB_RDONLY; | if (!JBD2_REC_ERR) | return; journal->j_flags |= JBD2_REC_ERR; Finally, it will no longer trigger panic because the filesystem has already been set read-only. Fix this by introduce j_abort_mutex to make sure journal abort is completed before panic, and remove JBD2_REC_ERR flag.
