New Revision: 268077
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/268077

Log:
  Merge r265463:
  
   Due to reasons unknown at this time, the system can be forced to write
   a journal block even when there are no journal entries to be written.
   Until the root cause is found, handle this case by ensuring that a
   valid journal segment is always written.
  
   Second, the data buffer used for writing journal entries was never
   being scrubbed of old data.  Fix this.
