Hi Guoqing,

Thanks for your analyze. This problem cannot reproduce on x86_64 but 100% reproduce on arm64,
it depends on the percpu counter code on different architecture.

Indeed, as you said, the real problem is invoke percpu_counter_dec(&journal->j_jh_shrink_count)
after it was destroyed during umount, and I'm afraid that it may also affect ocfs2
because it doesn't initialize the percpu counter before doing add/sub in
__jbd2_journal_[insert|remove]_checkpoint().

I think the quick fix could be:
