Subject: [PATCH v1 2/3] fat: mark fsinfo as dirty less often
Date: Wed, 11 Apr 2012 14:45:06 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1334144707-9729-3-git-send-email-dedekind1@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1334144707-9729-1-git-send-email-dedekind1@gmail.com>

From: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com>

This is a preparation patch which amends several functions in fatent.c
and makes them call 'fat_mark_fsinfo_dirty()' only once at the end
versus many times in the loop as it is now. Also, this patch makes sure
'fat_mark_fsinfo_dirty()' is called only after we have unlocked the FAT
table ('unlock_fat()').

The reason for this patch is that 'fat_mark_fsinfo_dirty()' will soon
become a bit heavier so it is better to avoid calling it unnecessarily
and while having the FAT table locked.
