From: Zhang Yi <yi.zhang@huawei.com> hulk inclusion category: bugfix bugzilla: 50788 CVE: NA --------------------------- Now that we can be sure the journal is aborted once a buffer has failed to be written back to disk, we can remove the journal abort logic in jbd2_journal_try_to_free_buffers() which was introduced in c044f3d8360d ("jbd2: abort journal if free a async write error metadata buffer"), because it may cost and propably is not safe.
