zhangyi (F) dd53bbb653 dm log writes: make sure super sector log updates are written in order
commit 211ad4b733 upstream.

Currently, although we submit super bios in order (and super.nr_entries
is incremented by each logged entry), submit_bio() is async so each
super sector may not be written to log device in order and then the
final nr_entries may be smaller than it should be.

This problem can be reproduced by the xfstests generic/455 with ext4:

  QA output created by 455
 -Silence is golden
 +mark 'end' does not exist

Fix this by serializing submission of super sectors to make sure each
is written to the log disk in order.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
