Subject: [PATCH] jbd2: Call the commit callback before the transaction could
get dropped
The transaction can potentially get dropped if there are no buffers
that need to be written. Make sure we call the commit callback before
potentially deciding to drop the transaction. Also avoid
dereferencing the commit_transaction pointer in the marker for the
same reason.
This patch fixes the bug reported by Eric Paris at:
