While debugging some very strange rmap corruption reports in connection with the online directory repair code. I root-caused the error to the following incorrect sequence: <start repair transaction> <expand directory, causing a deferred rmap to be queued> <roll transaction> <cancel transaction> Obviously, we should have committed the transaction instead of cancelling it. Thinking more broadly, however, xfs_trans_cancel should have warned us that we were throwing away work item that we already committed to performing. This is not correct, and we need to shut down the filesystem. Change xfs_trans_cancel to complain in the loudest manner if we're cancelling any transaction with deferred work items attached.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
