Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.16 22/42] vfs: make sync_filesystem return errors from ->sync_fs
Date: Wed,  9 Feb 2022 13:32:54 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220209183335.46545-22-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220209183335.46545-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: "Darrick J. Wong" <djwong@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit 5679897eb104cec9e99609c3f045a0c20603da4c ]

Strangely, sync_filesystem ignores the return code from the ->sync_fs
call, which means that syscalls like syncfs(2) never see the error.
This doesn't seem right, so fix that.
