Current implementation of jbd2_journal_force_commit() is suboptimal because
result in empty and useless commits. But callers just want to force and wait
any unfinished commits. We already has jbd2_journal_force_commit_nested()
which does exactly what we want, except we are guaranteed that we do not hold
journal transaction open.

  Hum, didn't I already review something like this?

  Can't we just make this function return <0, 0, 1 and get rid of
'progress' argument? Caller jbd2_journal_force_commit() can then return 0
if __jbd2_journal_force_commit() returned >= 0...

  Also if we move the WARN_ON(!current->journal_info) here, we can remove
the 'nested' argument.

Off course you did. As result you have pointed an incorrect error value.
This was fixed in this version.

Ok, sound reasonable. In fact __jbd2_journal_force_commit() should be
static so misuse is no likely to happen.

Hi Dmitry,

Have you had a chance to work on an updated version of this series
with Jan's requested changes?

Thanks,

Yes. It is ready, but since Jan is on vacations till 20'th I thought
it is useless to send it before that date. Am I right?

Please send it now; other folks, including myself, can review it.
Since we are already at 3.10-rc5, I'd get the ext4/jbd2-related
patches reviewed and in the ext4 tree sooner rather than later.

Many thanks!!
