When a transaction starts, start_this_handle() saves current
PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS value so that it can be restored at journal stop time.
Journal restart is a special case that calls start_this_handle() without
stopping the transaction. start_this_handle() isn't aware that the
original value is already stored so it overwrites it with current value.
For instance, a call sequence like below leaves PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS flag set
at the end:
jbd2_journal_start()
jbd2__journal_restart()
jbd2_journal_stop()
Make jbd2__journal_restart() restore the original value before calling
start_this_handle().

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
