xfs_dax_failure_fn is used to scan the filesystem during a memory failure event to look for memory mappings to revoke. Unfortunately, if it encounters an rmap record for filesystem metadata, it will shut down the filesystem and the scan immediately. This means that we don't complete the mapping revocation scan and instead leave live mappings to failed memory. Fix the function to defer the shutdown until after we've finished culling mappings. While we're at it, add the usual "xfs_" prefix to struct failure_info, and actually initialize mf_flags. Fixes: 6f643c57d57c ("xfs: implement ->notify_failure() for XFS") 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.
