Subject: [PATCH 2/9] ext4: honor the O_SYNC flag for aysnchronous direct I/O
requests
If a file is opened with O_SYNC|O_DIRECT, the drive cache does not get
flushed after the write completion. Instead, it's flushed *before* the
I/O is sent to the disk (in __generic_file_aio_write). This patch
attempts to fix that problem by marking an I/O as requiring a cache
flush in endio processing. I'll send a follow-on patch to the
generic write code to get rid of the bogus generic_write_sync call
when EIOCBQUEUED is returned.
