Re: [PATCH 13/13] ext4: Support for synchronous DAX faults

We return IOMAP_F_NEEDDSYNC flag from ext4_iomap_begin() for a
synchronous write fault when inode has some uncommitted metadata
changes. In the fault handler ext4_dax_fault() we then detect this case,
call vfs_fsync_range() to make sure all metadata is committed, and call
dax_pfn_mkwrite() to mark PTE as writeable. Note that this will also
dirty corresponding radix tree entry which is what we want - fsync(2)
will still provide data integrity guarantees for applications not using
userspace flushing. And applications using userspace flushing can avoid
calling fsync(2) and thus avoid the performance overhead.

Why is this only wiered up for the huge_fault handler and not the
regular?
