[PATCH 35/52] ext4: Invert the locking order of page_lock and transaction start

["Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>]

From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

This changes are needed to support data=ordered mode handling via
inodes.  This enables us to get rid of the journal heads and buffer
heads for data buffers in the ordered mode.  With the changes, during
tranasaction commit we writeout the inode pages using the
writepages()/writepage(). That implies we take page lock during
transaction commit. This can cause a deadlock with the locking order
page_lock -> jbd2_journal_start, since the jbd2_journal_start can wait
for the journal_commit to happen and the journal_commit now needs to
take the page lock. To avoid this dead lock reverse the locking order.
