Message-ID: <20070215002656.a163dee9.akpm@linux-foundation.org> (raw)

This:

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tytso/ext4-patches/2.6.20-ext4-1/broken-out/i_version_1_vfs_layer

significantly deoptimises file_update_time() for major filesystems (eg, ext3).

The changelog offers no reason for this alteration.  In fact the changelog
basically says nothing at all and needs a lot of work.

What is this patch doing and why does it need to make that change?
