- * Requeue a failed buffer for writeback.
- *
- * We clear the log item failed state here as well, but we have to be careful
- * about reference counts because the only active reference counts on the buffer
- * may be the failed log items. Hence if we clear the log item failed state
- * before queuing the buffer for IO we can release all active references to
- * the buffer and free it, leading to use after free problems in
- * xfs_buf_delwri_queue. It makes no difference to the buffer or log items which
- * order we process them in - the buffer is locked, and we own the buffer list
- * so nothing on them is going to change while we are performing this action.
- *
- * Hence we can safely queue the buffer for IO before we clear the failed log
- * item state, therefore always having an active reference to the buffer and
- * avoiding the transient zero-reference state that leads to use-after-free.
- *
- * Return true if the buffer was added to the buffer list, false if it was
- * already on the buffer list.
