    Subject[PATCH 02/49] vfs: Add BUG_ON for delayed and unwritten flags in submit_bh()
    Date
    From: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

    The BH_Delay and BH_Unwritten flags should never leak out to
    submit_bh(). So add some BUG_ON() checks to submit_bh so we can get a
    stack trace and determine how and why this might have happened.

    (Note that only XFS and ext4 use these buffer head flags, and XFS does
    not use submit_bh(). So this patch should only modify behavior for
    ext4.)
