txEnd() in fs/jfs/jfs_txnmgr.c reads the log pointer from the superblock
info, drops TXN_LOCK and then takes log->gclock, while lmLogClose() can
free that log during umount.

No fix has been merged. The 2023 proposal was withdrawn by its author
("I think my fix method is not a good solution"), and the 2026 proposals
for the same unmount race are unreviewed:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260603171620.2532527-1-jie.wang@intel.com/

The txEnd() sequence is unchanged in linux-next 20260727, and the
use-after-free was reported again in June 2026 against 7.0-rc1, with the
free stack in lmLogClose() via jfs_umount(); syzbot still lists it open:

CONFIG_JFS_FS=n in both ktypes/standard and ktypes/preempt-rt in
yocto-kernel-cache, and no fragment enables it.

v3:
- correct the claim that only one fix was proposed and withdrawn:
  further fixes were posted in 2026 but none is merged
- add the syzbot dashboard and the June 2026 report as evidence the
  race is still live in mainline

v2: https://lore.kernel.org/openembedded-core/20260803084827.1348810-1-junjie.cao@linux.dev/
