The problem occurs when a dinode is deleted before it has gotten to the journal properly. In the leak scenario, the bd object is pinned for journal committment (queued to the metadata buffers queue: sd_log_le_buf) but is subsequently unpinned and dequeued before it finds its way to the ail or the revoke queue. In this rare circumstance, the bd object needs to be freed from slab memory, or it is forgotten. We have to be very careful how we do it, though, because multiple processes can call gfs2_remove_from_journal. In order to avoid double-frees, only the process that does the unpinning is allowed to free the bd.
