From ebbbf757c6b8577ac2fb6181c08c2059153bb0e2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Tue, 18 Aug 2009 18:13:58 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ntfs: Use new syncing helpers and update comments Use new syncing helpers in .write and .aio_write functions. Also remove superfluous syncing in ntfs_file_buffered_write() and update comments about generic_osync_inode().
