jbd: Fix forever sleeping process in do_get_write_access()
commit 2842bb20eed2e25cde5114298edc62c8883a1d9a upstream.
In do_get_write_access() we wait on BH_Unshadow bit for buffer to get
from shadow state. The waking code in journal_commit_transaction() has
a bug because it does not issue a memory barrier after the buffer is moved
from the shadow state and before wake_up_bit() is called. Thus a waitqueue
check can happen before the buffer is actually moved from the shadow state
and waiting process may never be woken. Fix the problem by issuing proper
barrier.
