73 *
74 * Put the inode on the super block's dirty list.
75 *
76 * CAREFUL! We mark it dirty unconditionally, but move it onto the

78 * If it was not hashed, it will never be added to the dirty list
79 * even if it is later hashed, as it will have been marked dirty already.
80 *
81 * In short, make sure you hash any inodes _before_ you start marking
82 * them dirty.
83 *
84 * This function *must* be atomic for the I_DIRTY_PAGES case -
85 * set_page_dirty() is called under spinlock in several places.
86 *
87 * Note that for blockdevs, inode->dirtied_when represents the dirtying time of
88 * the block-special inode (/dev/hda1) itself. And the ->dirtied_when field of
89 * the kernel-internal blockdev inode represents the dirtying time of the
90 * blockdev's pages. This is why for I_DIRTY_PAGES we always use
91 * page->mapping->host, so the page-dirtying time is recorded in the internal
92 * blockdev inode.
