We cannot about a transaction commit with dirty items at this point with shutting down the filesystem. This points to XFS_TRANS_NOWAIT being completely broken, too, because we don't call xfs_trans_set_sync() until just before we commit the transaction. At this point, it is -too late- for nowait+sync to be handled gracefully, and it will *always* go bad. IOWs, the whole transaction "nowait" semantics as designed and implemented is not a workable solution.... -Dave.
