Subject: question about ext4/inode.c

The function ext4_da_writepages_trans_blocks contains the following code:

        if (!(inode->i_flags & EXT4_EXTENTS_FL) &&
            (max_blocks > EXT4_MAX_TRANS_DATA))
                max_blocks = EXT4_MAX_TRANS_DATA;


Elsewhere the constant EXT4_EXTENTS_FL is used as follows:

EXT4_I(inode)->i_flags & EXT4_EXTENTS_FL

Should that be done in ext4_da_writepages_trans_blocks as well?

thanks,
julia
