I have an understanding about journal_data_ordered and journal_data_writeback. Please tell me whether it is correct or not.

journal_data_ordered:

In this type meta data will be journaled and data will be forced to be written into disk before any changes happen.

journal_data_writeback:

In this type meta data will be journaled and data may be written into disk before meta data commits to the journal.

Is this correct?
