    This is for bugzilla bug #248176: GFS2: invalid metadata block
    
    Patches 1 thru 3 were accepted upstream, but there were problems
    with 4 and 5.  Those issues have been resolved and now the recovery
    tests are passing without errors.  This code has gone through
    41 * 3 successful gfs2 recovery tests before it hit an
    unrelated (openais) problem.
    
    This is a complete rewrite of patch 4 for bug #248176.
    
    Part of the problem was that inodes were being recycled
    before their buffers were flushed to the journal logs.
    Another problem was that the clone bitmaps were being
    searched for deleted inodes to recycle, but only the
    "real" bitmaps should be searched for that purpose.
