Merge tag 'xfs-for-linus-4.5-rc7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dgc/linux-xfs
Pull xfs fixes from Dave Chinner: "This is a fix for a regression introduced in 4.5-rc1 by the new torn log write detection code. The regression only affects people moving a clean filesystem between machines/kernels of different architecture (such as changing between 32 bit and 64 bit kernels), but this is the recommended (and only!) safe way to migrate a filesystem between architectures so we really need to ensure it works. The changes are larger than I'd prefer right at the end of the release cycle, but the majority of the change is just factoring code to enable the detection of a clean log at the correct time to avoid this issue. Changes: - Only perform torn log write detection on dirty logs. This prevents failures being detected due to a clean filesystem being moved between machines or kernels of different architectures (e.g. 32 -> 64 bit, BE -> LE, etc). This fixes a regression introduced by the torn log write detection in 4.5-rc1" * tag 'xfs-for-linus-4.5-rc7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dgc/linux-xfs: xfs: only run torn log write detection on dirty logs xfs: refactor in-core log state update to helper xfs: refactor unmount record detection into helper xfs: separate log head record discovery from verification
