Currently, ext4_set_inode_mapping_order() does not set max folio order for files with the data journalling flag. For files that already have large folios enabled, ext4_inode_journal_mode() ignores the data journalling flag once max folio order is set. This is not because data journalling cannot work with large folios, but because credit estimates will go through the roof if there are too many blocks per folio. Since the real constraint is blocks-per-folio, to support data=journal under LBS, we now set max folio order to be equal to min folio order for files with the journalling flag. When LBS is disabled, the max folio order remains unset as before. Therefore, before ext4_change_inode_journal_flag() switches the journalling mode, we call truncate_pagecache() to drop all page cache for that inode, and filemap_write_and_wait() is called unconditionally. After that, once the journalling mode has been switched, we can safely reset the inode mapping order, and the mapping_large_folio_support() check in ext4_inode_journal_mode() can be removed.

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 reStructuredText 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.
