[PATCH 6/8] xfs: Use generic writers counter instead of m_active_trans counter

From: Jan Kara
Date: Fri Jan 20 2012 - 15:36:20 EST


m_active_trans counter is racy wrt filesystem freezing. The patch replaces it
with generic counter of running transactions which is properly synchronized
with filesystem freezing. Things are a bit more complex because we need to log
a dummy transaction and free block counters after the filesystem is frozen so
we need to pass information to _xfs_trans_alloc() whether the transaction is
part of filesystem freezing or not.
