[PATCH] ext3/4: fix J_ASSERT(transaction->t_updates > 0) in journal_stop()
A disk generated some I/O error, after it, I hitted
J_ASSERT(transaction->t_updates > 0) in journal_stop().
It seems to happened on ext3_truncate() path from stack trace. Then,
maybe the following case may trigger J_ASSERT(transaction->t_updates > 0).
ext3_truncate()
-> ext3_free_branches()
-> ext3_journal_test_restart()
-> ext3_journal_restart()
-> journal_restart()
transaction->t_updates--;
/* another process aborted journal */
-> start_this_handle()
returns -EROFS without transaction->t_updates++;
-> ext3_journal_stop()
-> journal_stop()
J_ASSERT(transaction->t_updates > 0)
If journal was aborted in middle of journal_restart(), ext3_truncate()
may trigger J_ASSERT().
