Can one of you let me know the process of submitting changes?

Problem: Real time flag set on a regular file can race with directio which
can lead to
              incorrect real time device for iomap in xfs_vm_direct_IO. This
can happen
              only on the first I/O to the file as we don't set real time
flag if any of
              the extents or delayed blocks present.

Fix:

  xfs_setattr() {
          ...
          if (!(mask & XFS_AT_SIZE)) {
                 if (need_io_lock && vap->va_xflags & XFS_XFLAG_REALTIME)
                        lock_flags |= XFS_IOLOCK_EXCL;
                 .....
          }
         ...
 }


-Thanks,
 Saradhi.
