Subject: [GIT PULL] Two fixes for 4.2 final

Hi Linus,

Two fixes in this pull request:

- The writeback regression fix from Tejun, which has been weeks in the
  making. This fixes a case where we would sometimes not issue writeback
  when we should have.

- An older fix for a memory corruption issue in mtip32xx. It was
  deferred since we wanted a better fix for this (driver should not have
  to handle that case), but given the timing, it's better to put the
  simple fix in for 4.2 release.


Please pull!
