Subject: [PATCH] nfsd: nfsd_setattr needs to call commit_metadata
Date: Tue, 1 Jun 2010 21:59:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100601195917.GA25910@lst.de> (raw)

The conversion of write_inode_now calls to commit_metadata in commit
f501912a35c02eadc55ca9396ece55fe36f785d0 missed out the call in nfsd_setattr.

But without this conversion we can't guarantee that a SETATTR request
has actually been commited to disk with XFS, which causes a regression
from 2.6.32 (only for NFSv2, but anyway).
