From: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@...hat.com>
To: ext4 development <linux-ext4@...r.kernel.org>
Subject: [PATCH] ext4: remove ext4_handle_release_buffer()
ext4_handle_release_buffer() was intended to remove journal
write access from a buffer, but it doesn't actually do anything
at all other than add a BUFFER_TRACE point, but it's not reliably
used for that either. Remove all the associated dead code.

If this flies, I can do the same for ext3.
