commit 2d5f38a31980d7090f5bf91021488dc61a0ba8ee upstream. The fscounters scrub code doesn't work properly because it cannot quiesce updates to the percpu counters in the filesystem, hence it returns false corruption reports. This has been fixed properly in one of the online repair patchsets that are under review by replacing the xchk_disable_reaping calls with an exclusive filesystem freeze. Disabling background gc isn't sufficient to fix the problem. In other words, scrub doesn't need to call xfs_inodegc_stop, which is just as well since it wasn't correct to allow scrub to call xfs_inodegc_start when something else could be calling xfs_inodegc_stop (e.g. trying to freeze the filesystem). Neuter the scrubber for now, and remove the xchk_*_reaping functions. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
