[ Upstream commita09decff5c] If the journal is dirty when the filesystem is mounted, jbd2 will replay the journal but the journal superblock will not be updated by journal_reset() because JBD2_ABORT flag is still set (it was set in journal_init_common()). This is problematic because when a new transaction is then committed, it will be recorded in block 1 (journal->j_tail was set to 1 in journal_reset()). If unclean shutdown happens again before the journal superblock is updated, the new recorded transaction will not be replayed during the next mount (because of stale sb->s_start and sb->s_sequence values) which can lead to filesystem corruption.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
