Darrick J. Wong 655bb2c4ac xfs: always rejoin held resources during defer roll
commit 710d707d2f upstream.

During testing of xfs/141 on a V4 filesystem, I observed some
inconsistent behavior with regards to resources that are held (i.e.
remain locked) across a defer roll.  The transaction roll always gives
the defer roll function a new transaction, even if committing the old
transaction fails.  However, the defer roll function only rejoins the
held resources if the transaction commit succeedied.  This means that
callers of defer roll have to figure out whether the held resources are
attached to the transaction being passed back.

Worse yet, if the defer roll was part of a defer finish call, we have a
third possibility: the defer finish could pass back a dirty transaction
with dirty held resources and an error code.

The only sane way to handle all of these scenarios is to require that
the code that held the resource either cancel the transaction before
unlocking and releasing the resources, or use functions that detach
resources from a transaction properly (e.g.  xfs_trans_brelse) if they
need to drop the reference before committing or cancelling the
transaction.

In order to make this so, change the defer roll code to join held
resources to the new transaction unconditionally and fix all the bhold
callers to release the held buffers correctly.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
