Subject: [PATCH] Fix inode list allocation size in writeback.
Date: Fri, 16 May 2008 20:06:57 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080516100657.GV103491721@sgi.com> (raw)

We only need to allocate space for the number of inodes in
the cluster when writing back inodes, not every byte in the
inode cluster. This reduces the amount of memory needing to
be allocated to 256 bytes instead of 64k.

Somebody pass me the brown paper bag, please.
