It appears to fix up a quite nasty failure. Even if it is not the real correct long term solution it has to be better than having boxes panic'ing under certain loads? I'm clueless about this but it does appear to fix my bug and others have hit this aswell. (apologies if this has been fixed in another way, haven't seen any jbd/ext3 patches in a while) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
