jbd2: flush filesystem device before updating tail sequence
When committing transaction in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction(), the disk caches for the filesystem device should be flushed before updating the journal tail sequence. However, this step is missed if the journal is not located on the filesystem device. As a result, the filesystem may become inconsistent following a power failure or system crash. Fix it by ensuring that the filesystem device is flushed appropriately.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
