Subject: NFS: Fix up the fsync code
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.36-rc1~498^2~21
X-Git-Url: https://bbs.cooldavid.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=af7fa16506bf9b6323e862a61e14c20555152bb3;p=net-next-2.6.git

NFS: Fix up the fsync code

Christoph points out that the VFS will always flush out data before calling
nfs_fsync(), so we can dispense with a full call to nfs_wb_all(), and
replace that with a simpler call to nfs_commit_inode().
