    ms/jbd2: discard dirty data when forgetting an un-journalled buffer
    
    We do not unmap and clear dirty flag when forgetting a buffer without
    journal or does not belongs to any transaction, so the invalid dirty
    data may still be written to the disk later. It's fine if the
    corresponding block is never used before the next mount, and it's also
    fine that we invoke clean_bdev_aliases() related functions to unmap
    the block device mapping when re-allocating such freed block as data
    block. But this logic is somewhat fragile and risky that may lead to
    data corruption if we forget to clean bdev aliases. So, It's better to
    discard dirty data during forget time.
    
    We have been already handled all the cases of forgetting journalled
    buffer, this patch deal with the remaining two cases.
    
    - buffer is not journalled yet,
    - buffer is journalled but doesn't belongs to any transaction.
    
    We invoke __bforget() instead of __brelese() when forgetting an
    un-journalled buffer in jbd2_journal_forget(). After this patch we can
    remove all clean_bdev_aliases() related calls in ext4.

    ext4/jbd2: port data corruption fixes from ms
    
    While investigating the data corruption on vzt-ploop-check test, when we
    detect one page in file which contains wrong data, we were lucky to have
    exact the same pattern in bad page each time. So we've added a small
    debug to fail on setting a dirty bit for a page if it contains the
    pattern, in the begining of __set_page_dirty and
    __set_page_dirty_nobuffers.
    
    We've got a crash, which looks related with the ported patches:

    Before ("jbd2: clear dirty flag when revoking a buffer from an older
    transaction") revoken buffer/page can be wrongly marked dirty, and later
    be wrongly written to disk. Other patches from the same series might be
    also helpful.
