From dba898b02defa66e5fe493d58ec0293a940f9c93 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Whitehouse Date: Thu, 14 Apr 2011 09:54:02 +0100 Subject: GFS2: Clean up fsync() This patch is designed to clean up GFS2's fsync implementation and ensure that it really does get everything on disk. Since ->write_inode() has been updated, we can call that via the vfs library function sync_inode_metadata() and the only remaining thing that has to be done is to ensure that we get any revoke records in the log after the inode has been written back.
