+ * xfs_ifree() builds, which may mark the inode XFS_ISTALE if the

+ * here breaks the relationship between cluster buffer invalidation and
+ * stale inode invalidation on cluster buffer item journal commit
+ * completion, and can result in leaving dirty stale inodes hanging
+ * around in memory.
+ *
+ * We have no need for serialising this inode operation against other
+ * operations - we freed the inode and hence reallocation is required
+ * and that will serialise on reallocating the space the deferops need
+ * to free. Hence we can unlock the inode on the first commit of
+ * the transaction rather than roll it right through the deferops. This
+ * avoids relogging the XFS_ISTALE inode.
+ *
+ * We check that xfs_ifree() hasn't grown an internal transaction roll
+ * by asserting that the inode is still locked when it returns.
