Subject: ksys_sync_helper
Date: Mon, 31 Jul 2023 00:20:37 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ZMdgxYPPRYFipu1e@infradead.org> (raw)

Guys,

why did b5dee3130bb4014 add a magic export for sync functionality
that wrapps VFS code in a weird way, and then exports it (without
even adding a user in that commit)?   This kind of functionality
needs to be exported from the VFS, and only with ACKs?  With this
and commit d5ea093eebf022e now we end up with a random driver (amdgpu)
syncing all file systems for absolutely no good reason.
