    xfs: fix EFI transaction cancellation. · 9c5f8414
    Dave Chinner authored
    XFS_EFI_CANCELED has not been set in the code base since
    xfs_efi_cancel() was removed back in 2006 by commit
    065d312e
    
     ("[XFS] Remove unused
    iop_abort log item operation), and even then xfs_efi_cancel() was
    never called. I haven't tracked it back further than that (beyond
    git history), but it indicates that the handling of EFIs in
    cancelled transactions has been broken for a long time.
    
    Basically, when we get an IOP_UNPIN(lip, 1); call from
    xfs_trans_uncommit() (i.e. remove == 1), if we don't free the log
    item descriptor we leak it. Fix the behviour to be correct and kill
    the XFS_EFI_CANCELED flag.
