[PATCH 03/24] GFS2: Fix bug-trap in ail flush code

From: Steven Whitehouse
Date: Mon Oct 24 2011 - 08:47:33 EST


The assert was being tested under the wrong lock, a
legacy of the original code. Also, if it does trigger,
the resulting information was not always a lot of help.

This moves the patch under the correct lock and also
prints out more useful information in tacking down the
source of the problem.
