Subject: [PATCH] [GFS2] Fix incorrect fs sync behaviour.
This adds a sync_fs superblock operation for GFS2 and removes
the journal flush from write_super in favour of sync_fs where it
ought to be. This is more or less identical to the way in which ext3
does this.
This bug was pointed out by Russell Cattelan <cattelan@redhat.com>

This is a bit different than my original patch?
Are you sure we don't need the s_lock here?

Yes. See linux-2.6/Documentation/filesystems/Locking:
locking rules:
All may block.
