Previously, the journal entry read code was changed so that if we got a journal entry that failed validation, we'd try to use it, preferring to use a good version from another device if available. But this left a bug where if an earlier validation check (say, checksum) failed, the later checks (for last_seq) wouldn't run and we'd end up using a journal entry with a garbage last_seq field. This fixes that so that the later validation checks run and if necessary change those fields to something sensible.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
