But if an error occurs while executing\njbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() (e.g., an EIO), we don't stop waiting for free\nspace right away, we try other branches, and if j_committing_transaction\nis NULL (i.e., the tid is 0), we will get the following complain:\n\n============================================\nJBD2: I/O error when updating journal superblock for sdd-8.\n__jbd2_log_wait_for_space:
