The code cleaning transaction's lists of checkpoint buffers has a bug
where it increases bh refcount only after releasing
journal->j_list_lock. Thus the following race is possible:
CPU0 CPU1
jbd2_log_do_checkpoint()
jbd2_journal_try_to_free_buffers()
__journal_try_to_free_buffer(bh)
...
while (transaction->t_checkpoint_io_list)
...
if (buffer_locked(bh)) {
<-- IO completes now, buffer gets unlocked -->
spin_unlock(&journal->j_list_lock);
spin_lock(&journal->j_list_lock);
__jbd2_journal_remove_checkpoint(jh);
spin_unlock(&journal->j_list_lock);
try_to_free_buffers(page);
get_bh(bh) <-- accesses freed bh
Fix the problem by grabbing bh reference before unlocking
journal->j_list_lock.
