X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=554e7f9e043e29da79c044f7a55efe4fad40701e;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git ocfs2: Access the xattr bucket only before modifying it. In ocfs2_xattr_value_truncate, we may call b-tree codes which will extend the journal transaction. It has a potential problem that it may let the already-accessed-but-not-dirtied buffers gone. So we'd better access the bucket after we call ocfs2_xattr_value_truncate. And as for the root buffer for the xattr value, b-tree code will acess and dirty it, so we don't need to worry about it.
