Subject: block_write_full_page: Use synchronous writes for WBC_SYNC_ALL writebacks
X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~14801^2~3
X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a64c8610bd3b753c6aff58f51c04cdf0ae478c18;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git

block_write_full_page: Use synchronous writes for WBC_SYNC_ALL writebacks

When doing synchronous writes because wbc->sync_mode is set to
WBC_SYNC_ALL, send the write request using WRITE_SYNC, so that we
don't unduly block system calls such as fsync().
