Joseph Qi ddf4b773aa ocfs2: fix a deadlock when commit trans
commit 6f1b228529 introduces a regression which can deadlock as
follows:

  Task1:                              Task2:
  jbd2_journal_commit_transaction     ocfs2_test_bg_bit_allocatable
  spin_lock(&jh->b_state_lock)        jbd_lock_bh_journal_head
  __jbd2_journal_remove_checkpoint    spin_lock(&jh->b_state_lock)
  jbd2_journal_put_journal_head
  jbd_lock_bh_journal_head

Task1 and Task2 lock bh->b_state and jh->b_state_lock in different
order, which finally result in a deadlock.

So use jbd2_journal_[grab|put]_journal_head instead in
ocfs2_test_bg_bit_allocatable() to fix it.

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.
