If updating journal superblock fails after journal data has been flushed,
the error is omitted and this will mislead the caller as a normal case.
In ocfs2, the checkpoint will be treated successfully and the other node
can get the lock to update. Since the sb_start is still pointing to the
old log block, it will rewrite the journal data during journal recovery
bu the other node. Thus the new updates will be overwritten and ocfs2
corrupts.
So we have to return the error, and ocfs2_commit_cache will take care of
the error and prevent the other node to do update besides recovering
journal first.

1.8.4.3
This patch caused test ext4/306 to fail, because it caused resize2fs
to fail. The problem is that jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() will return
1 if there is nothing to cleanup, and a negative error number if there
is an error. Unfortunately, this patch hunk:

... would let the non-negative return value leak out to
jbd2_journal_flush(), and its callers are *not* prepared to handle the
non-negative return value (since jbd2_journal_flush wasn't doing this
before.)
I've fixed this by adding a "err = 0;" after the if statement.

Hi Ted,
Thanks for pointing out this issue and fixing it. If return 1 it may
break out those can only handle zero/negative return value.
I am sorry for not considering this before.
