All but one caller of xfs_defer_init() passes in the ->t_firstblock of the associated transaction. The one outlier is xlog_recover_process_intents(), which simply passes a dummy value because a valid pointer is required. This firstblock variable can simply be removed. At this point we could remove the xfs_defer_init() firstblock parameter and initialize ->t_firstblock directly. Even that is not necessary, however, because ->t_firstblock is automatically reinitialized in the new transaction on a transaction roll. Since xfs_defer_init() should never occur more than once on a particular transaction (since the corresponding finish will roll it), replace the reinit from xfs_defer_init() with an assert that verifies the transaction has a NULLFSBLOCK firstblock.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
