ext4, jbd2: Add barriers for file systems with exernal journals
This is a bit complicated because we are trying to optimize when we send barriers to the fs data disk. We could just throw in an extra barrier to the data disk whenever we send a barrier to the journal disk, but that's not always strictly necessary. We only need to send a barrier during a commit when there are data blocks which are must be written out due to an inode written in ordered mode, or if fsync() depends on the commit to force data blocks to disk. Finally, before we drop transactions from the beginning of the journal during a checkpoint operation, we need to guarantee that any blocks that were flushed out to the data disk are firmly on the rust platter before we drop the transaction from the journal. Thanks to Oleg Drokin for pointing out this flaw in ext3/ext4. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
