Function gfs2_remove_from_ail drops the reference on the bh via brelse. This patch fixes a race condition whereby bh is deferenced after the brelse when setting bd->bd_blkno = bh->b_blocknr; Under certain rare circumstances, bh might be gone or reused, and bd->bd_blkno is set to whatever that memory happens to be, which is often 0. Later, in gfs2_trans_add_unrevoke, that bd fails the test "bd->bd_blkno >= blkno" which causes it to never be freed. The end result is that the bd is never freed from the bufdata cache, which results in this error: slab error in kmem_cache_destroy(): cache `gfs2_bufdata': Can't free all objects Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
