Hi,

This patch set fixes ext4 fs corruption problems caused by
transient I/O error. The ext3/jbd version is already in the
current -mm.

Here is the ext3/jbd version:
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-kernel/2008/7/24/2661724

This patch set consists of following 4 patches:

[PATCH 1/4] jbd2: abort when failed to log metadata buffers
[PATCH 2/4] jbd2: fix error handling for checkpoint io
[PATCH 3/4] ext4: add checks for errors from jbd2
[PATCH 4/4] jbd2: don't dirty original metadata buffer on abort

In the ext3/jbd version, PATCH 2/4 had a problem and I fixed it
with an additional patch later. This time PATCH 2/4 includes
that fix.

Regards,
