mainlining shenanigans
165ea85f14
Error injection testing uncovered a pretty severe problem where we could end up committing a super that pointed to the wrong tree roots, resulting in transid mismatch errors. The way we commit the transaction is we update the super copy with the current generations and bytenrs of the important roots, and then copy that into our super_for_commit. Then we allow transactions to continue again, we write out the dirty pages for the transaction, and then we write the super. If the write out fails we'll bail and skip writing the supers. However since we've allowed a new transaction to start, we can have a log attempting to sync at this point, which would be blocked on fs_info->tree_log_mutex. Once the commit fails we're allowed to do the log tree commit, which uses super_for_commit, which now points at fs tree's that were not written out. Fix this by checking BTRFS_FS_STATE_ERROR once we acquire the tree_log_mutex. This way if the transaction commit fails we're sure to see this bit set and we can skip writing the super out. This patch fixes this specific transid mismatch error I was seeing with this particular error path.

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.
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.
