Subject: Review - flush blockdev on close
Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2007 11:42:49 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070424014249.GF48531920@melbourne.sgi.com> (raw)


As suggested by Christoph, we probably should flush the block
device as we complete the process of unmounting the filesystem.
Patch attached.

Cheers,

Dave.
