If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jan Kara commit b71fc079b5d8f42b2a52743c8d2f1d35d655b1c5 upstream. Code tracking when transaction needs to be committed on fdatasync(2) forgets to handle a situation when only inode's i_size is changed. Thus in such situations fdatasync(2) doesn't force transaction with new i_size to disk and that can result in wrong i_size after a crash. Fix the issue by updating inode's i_datasync_tid whenever its size is updated.
