* 'ext3-latency-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4: ext3: Try to avoid starting a transaction in writepage for data=writepage block_write_full_page: switch synchronous writes to use WRITE_SYNC_PLUG

* locked buffer. This only can happen if someone has written the buffer
|
||||
* directly, with submit_bh(). At the address_space level PageWriteback
|
||||
* prevents this contention from occurring.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* If block_write_full_page() is called with wbc->sync_mode ==
|
||||
* WB_SYNC_ALL, the writes are posted using WRITE_SYNC_PLUG; this
|
||||
* causes the writes to be flagged as synchronous writes, but the
|
||||
* block device queue will NOT be unplugged, since usually many pages
|
||||
* will be pushed to the out before the higher-level caller actually
|
||||
* waits for the writes to be completed. The various wait functions,
|
||||
* such as wait_on_writeback_range() will ultimately call sync_page()
|
||||
* which will ultimately call blk_run_backing_dev(), which will end up
|
||||
* unplugging the device queue.
