Yeah, it sounds good to me. Do you want me to send the fix patch, or you modify your commit 8f9e16badb8fd in another email directly?I've gone ahead and made the changes; what do you think? I like how it also removes 40 lines of code. :-) - Ted From ef3130d1b0b8ca769252d6a722a2e59a00141383 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Date: Fri, 2 Jul 2021 18:05:03 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: inline jbd2_journal_[un]register_shrinker() The function jbd2_journal_unregister_shrinker() was getting called twice when the file system was getting unmounted. On Power and ARM platforms this was causing kernel crash when unmounting the file system, when a percpu_counter was destroyed twice. Fix this by removing jbd2_journal_[un]register_shrinker() functions, and inlining the shrinker setup and teardown into journal_init_common() and jbd2_journal_destroy(). This means that ext4 and ocfs2 now no longer need to know about registering and unregistering jbd2's shrinker. Also, while we're at it, rename the percpu counter from j_jh_shrink_count to j_checkpoint_jh_count, since this makes it clearer what this counter is intended to track.
