3.2.72-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Jan Kara <[email protected]>

commit a78bb11d7acd525623c6a0c2ff4e213d527573fa upstream.

There are some log tail updates that are not protected by j_checkpoint_mutex.
Some of these are harmless because they happen during startup or shutdown but
updates in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() and jbd2_journal_flush() can
really race with other log tail updates (e.g. someone doing
jbd2_journal_flush() with someone running jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail()). So
protect all log tail updates with j_checkpoint_mutex.

[bwh: Backported to 3.2:
 - Adjust context
 - Add unlock on the error path in jbd2_journal_flush()]
