Subject: [PATCH 12/12] remove the call to ->write_super in __sync_filesystem
Date: Mon, 8 Jun 2009 10:08:54 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090608080854.GM20735@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090608080252.GA20735@lst.de>

Now that all filesystems provide ->sync_fs methods we can change
__sync_filesystem to only call ->sync_fs.

This gives us a clear separation between periodic writeouts which
are driven by ->write_super and data integrity syncs that go
through ->sync_fs. (modulo file_fsync which is also going away)
