[patch] remove inode.i_dirty_data_buffers

Andrew Morton (akpm@zip.com.au)
Wed, 24 Apr 2002 01:55:08 -0700


Removes inode.i_dirty_data_buffers. It's no longer used - all dirty
buffers have their pages marked dirty and filemap_fdatasync() /
filemap_fdatawait() catches it all.

Updates all callers.

There's a problem with JFS - it was performing buffer-based
writeback with pages locked, so it deadlocks. My attempt
to fix that (by not locking metapage pages) has been sent
to the JFS list for confirmation.
