Bob Peterson f05b86db31 gfs2: Prepare to withdraw as soon as an IO error occurs in log write
Before this patch, function gfs2_end_log_write would detect any IO
errors writing to the journal and put out an appropriate message,
but it never set a withdrawing condition. Eventually, the log daemon
would see the error and determine it was time to withdraw, but in
the meantime, other processes could continue running as if nothing
bad ever happened. The biggest consequence is that __gfs2_glock_put
would BUG() when it saw that there were still unwritten items.

This patch sets the WITHDRAWING status as soon as an IO error is
detected, and that way, the BUG will be avoided so the file system
can be properly withdrawn and unmounted.

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.
