When a full journal commit is on-going, any fast commit has to be enqueued into a different queue: FC_Q_STAGING instead of FC_Q_MAIN. This enqueueing is done only once, i.e. if an inode is already queued in a previous fast commit entry it won't be enqueued again. However, if a full commit starts _after_ the inode is enqueued into FC_Q_MAIN, the next fast commit needs to be done into FC_Q_STAGING. And this is not being done in function ext4_fc_track_template(). This patch fixes the issue by re-enqueuing an inode into the STAGING queue during the fast commit clean-up callback when doing a full commit. However, to prevent a race with a fast-commit, the clean-up callback has to be called with the journal locked. This bug was found using fstest generic/047. This test creates several 32k bytes files, sync'ing each of them after it's creation, and then shutting down the filesystem. Some data may be loss in this operation; for example a file may have it's size truncated to zero.

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.
