Cover letter [RFC 0/6] ext4: fast_commit fixes and some minor cleanups
Hello,
Please find this small patch series which fixes one of the issue (causing data abort exception) identified with fast_commit and flex_bg.
Although I have given -g quick, log group a run and didn't see any surprise there. But a careful review in Patch-1 & Patch-6 will surely help! :)
Will shortly send out the fstest patch, which could trigger this.
Patch details
==============
Patch-1: Fixes a data abort which could happen during recovery with flex_bg feature. This might be even needed to cc to stable, right?
