[PATCH 50/58] [GFS2] Fix assert in log code

From: swhiteho
Date: Mon Jan 21 2008 - 05:21:31 EST


From: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@xxxxxxxxxx>

Although the values were all being calculated correctly, there was a
race in the assert due to the way it was using atomic variables. This
changes the value we assert on so that we get the same effect by testing
a different variable. This prevents the assert triggering when it shouldn't.
