Subject: [patch 1/1] fs/ext4/fsync.c: generic_file_fsync call based on barrier flag
From: Fabian Frederick <fabf@...net.be>
Subject: fs/ext4/fsync.c: generic_file_fsync call based on barrier flag
generic_file_fsync has been updated to issue a flush for older
filesystems.
This patch tests for barrier flag in ext4 mount flags and calls the right
function.
