    xfs: cancel dfops on xfs_defer_finish() error · 9b1f4e98
    Brian Foster authored
    The current semantics of xfs_defer_finish() require the caller to
    call xfs_defer_cancel() on error. This is slightly inconsistent with
    transaction commit error handling where a failed commit cleans up
    the transaction before returning.
    
    More significantly, the only requirement for exposure of
    ->dop_pending outside of xfs_defer_finish() is so that
    xfs_defer_cancel() can drain it on error. Since the only recourse of
    xfs_defer_finish() errors is cancellation, mirror the transaction
    logic and cancel remaining dfops before returning from
    xfs_defer_finish() with an error.
    
    Beside simplifying xfs_defer_finish() semantics, this ensures that
    xfs_defer_finish() always returns with an empty ->dop_pending and
    thus facilitates removal of the list from xfs_defer_ops.
