[-- Attachment #1: 0084-ext4-Wait-for-proper-transaction-commit-on-fsync.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 7949 bytes --]

2.6.31-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
(cherry picked from commit b436b9bef84de6893e86346d8fbf7104bc520645)

We cannot rely on buffer dirty bits during fsync because pdflush can come
before fsync is called and clear dirty bits without forcing a transaction
commit. What we do is that we track which transaction has last changed
the inode and which transaction last changed allocation and force it to
disk on fsync.
