jbd2: Add barrier not supported test to journal_wait_on_commit_record
Xen doesn't report that barriers are not supported until buffer I/O is reported as completed, instead of when the buffer I/O is submitted. Add a check and a fallback codepath to journal_wait_on_commit_record() to detect this case, so that attempts to mount ext4 filesystems on LVM/devicemapper devices on Xen guests don't blow up with an "Aborting journal on device XXX"; "Remounting filesystem read-only" error. Thanks to Andreas Sundstrom for reporting this issue. Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@kernel.org
