Subject: [PATCH 1/7] writeback: Move clearing of I_SYNC into inode_sync_complete()
Date: Tue, 20 Mar 2012 23:56:25 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1332284191-21076-2-git-send-email-jack@suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1332284191-21076-1-git-send-email-jack@suse.cz>

Move clearing of I_SYNC into inode_sync_complete().  It is more logical to have
clearing of I_SYNC bit and waking of waiters in one place. Also later we will
have two places needing to clear I_SYNC and wake up waiters so this allows them
to use the common helper. Moving of I_SYNC clearing to a later stage of
writeback_single_inode() is safe since we hold i_lock all the time.
