From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sat Sep 26 2015 - 17:49:01 EST


4.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx>

commit bdfe0cbd746aa9b2509c2f6d6be17193cf7facd7 upstream.

This reverts commit 08439fec266c3cc5702953b4f54bdf5649357de0.

Unfortunately we still need to test for bdi->dev to avoid a crash when a
USB stick is yanked out while a file system is mounted:

usb 2-2: USB disconnect, device number 2
Buffer I/O error on dev sdb1, logical block 15237120, lost sync page write
JBD2: Error -5 detected when updating journal superblock for sdb1-8.
