[PATCH v5 0/3] ring-buffer: Making persistent ring buffers robust

[Masami Hiramatsu (Google)]

Hi,

Here is the 5th version of improvement patches for making persistent
ring buffers robust to failures.
The previous version is here:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/177191595057.435720.10116014529518464418.stgit@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

This version fixes multiple issues in the previous version.
 - [1/3] Use appropriate functions for flushing cache and
   stopping event recrod.
 - [2/3] More fixes for masking commit fields and do not move
   unrelated rb_commit_index().
 - [3/3] Show total number of discarded pages instead of
    showing errors on each page.

Thank you,

---
