jbd2_journal_wait_updates() is called with j_state_lock held. But if there is a commit in progress, then this transaction might get committed and freed via jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() -> jbd2_journal_free_transaction(), when we release j_state_lock. So check for journal->j_running_transaction everytime we release and acquire j_state_lock to avoid use-after-free issue.

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.
