Issue:
------------
JFS related call traces and system enters xmon when rebooted after installation 

Steps to reproduce:
---------------------------------
1 - Install Ubuntu 17.04 the system with 
 - prepboot
- /root [JFS filesystem]
- swap space

2 -After installation when rebooted it gives out call traces like as
below:

When I first connected to the LPAR, it was unresponsive so I restarted
it from the HMC and surprisingly it came up to the login prompt and I
logged into the shell. I proceeded to install the matching linux-
image-4.10.0-15-generic-dbgsym_4.10.0-15.17_ppc64el.ddeb. However, the
installation of the matching dbgsym wasn't as helpful as I wanted it to
be. objdump, crash tool, or addr2line wouldn't give me the source line
correspond to the NIP address.

I then restarted the LPAR with xmon enabled and it would drop to xmon
immediately after attempting to remount / and at the same location as
before at __get_metapage+0x204/0x6f0 [jfs] and again with a dereference
of 0x0 as the cause of the data exception

0xd00000000649df54 <__get_metapage+508>:        ld      r8,8(r29)
0xd00000000649df58 <__get_metapage+512>:        ld      r9,56(r31)
0xd00000000649df5c <__get_metapage+516>:        ld      r7,0(r8) <-- r8 = 0x0

Just to see if this was consistent, I rebooted the system another 6
times and it fell to xmon in the same location most of the time but one
time it failed on release_metapage() instead.

and on my seventh attempt it ended up booting all the way to the login
prompt again where I have left it.

I built a newer kernel based on 4.10.0-19.21 sources with
CONFIG_JFS_DEBUG enabled and passed jfs.jfsloglevel=4 from the kernel
command line and it took a few reboots but it hit the crash and
extracted the traces. I need to review the output to see if there is
anything there.

Just before it faults, it called chkSuper() as part of mount (or
remount) of the / volume.

Since a successful boot wraps the kernel log buffer at the point it
would have logged a successful chkSuper(), I don't have a baseline to
compare but it is odd that there is no

__get_metapage: returning = 0xc000000387a19330 data = 0xc0000000fcbc4000
after the first
 __get_metapage: ino = 16, lblock = 0x0, abs=0

and as mentioned now it seems with the debug code included, it takes
maybe five or six boots between failures but it seems consistent. Here
is another crash from a different boot:

Although JFS originated from IBM, we haven't had a Linux JFS developer
in years so mirroring to Canonical for their awareness of this problem
and to see if they happen to have anyone knowledgeable in JFS internals
while we keep trying to isolate this further.
