[RFC PATCH 2/2] jbd: Stabilize pages during writes when in ordered mode

From: Darrick J. Wong <hidden>
Date: 2012-11-22 02:36:45
Also in: linux-fsdevel, lkml
Subsystem: filesystems (vfs and infrastructure), the rest · Maintainers: Alexander Viro, Christian Brauner, Linus Torvalds

When writing buffers out to disk ahead of committing a transaction, set the
Stable bit on the page to prevent others from wandering in and modifying the
page.
