From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> ext4 already uses synchronous discards, no need to add I/O barriers.This needs the patch that Jan sent in reply to my initial version merged into it.Actually the jbd2 patch needs it merged, but the point still stands.Yeah, wasn't sure about that one. Has anyone tested it? I'll be happy to merge it but I have no idea whether it's correct or not and Jan didn't seem to have tested it so... Jan, shall I merge the patch?I'm quite confident the patch is correct so you can merge it I think but tomorrow I'll give it some crash testing together with the rest of your patch set in KVM to be sure.
Patch included in the series before jbd2 conversion patch. Thanks. -- tejun
