Currently we do this awful thing where we get another ref on a trans handle, async off that handle and commit the transaction from that work. Because we do this we have to mess with current->journal_info and the freeze counting stuff. We already have an async thing to kick for the transaction commit, the transaction kthread. Replace this work struct with a flag on the fs_info to tell the kthread to go ahead and commit even if it's before our timeout. Then we can drastically simplify the async transaction commit path. Note: this can be simplified and functionality based on the pending operation COMMIT.

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.
