Hi,
Fsyncing is tricky business, so factor out the bits of the xfs_file_fsync
function that can be used from the I/O post-processing path.
Why would we need to skip the filemap_write_and_wait_range call here?
If we're doing direct I/O we should not have any pages in this regions
anyway. You're also not skipping it in the generic implementation as
far as I can see, so I see no point in doing it just in XFS.
OK, I'll fix that.
Thanks!
Jeff
