Bob Peterson 8cc67f704f gfs2: don't stop reads while withdraw in progress
When gfs2 withdraws a file system, it calls signal_our_withdraw which
triggers another node to replay the withdrawing node's journal. Then it
waits until it knows the journal has been replayed. Part of this wait is
to repeatedly call check_journal_clean which calls gfs2_jdesc_check,
which checks to see if the journal is sane. As part of its sanity checks
it needs to re-read its journal's metadata. But with today's code, any
attempt to re-read the metadata results in -EIO because of a check for
the file system withdraw in function gfs2_meta_wait.

This patch adds an additional check for SDF_WITHDRAW_IN_PROG, to tell
if the read is done while the withdraw is in progress. In that case
we allow the metadata read to not be rejected. Therefore the metadata
check is done properly, so the withdraw sequence can finish normally.

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.
