Ritesh Harjani cc16eecae6 jbd2: fix use-after-free of transaction_t race
jbd2_journal_wait_updates() is called with j_state_lock held. But if
there is a commit in progress, then this transaction might get committed
and freed via jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() ->
jbd2_journal_free_transaction(), when we release j_state_lock.
So check for journal->j_running_transaction everytime we release and
acquire j_state_lock to avoid use-after-free issue.

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 Restructured Text 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.
