From b0683aa638b3326c6fc22e5290dfa75e08bd83f5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Fri, 4 Jun 2010 20:55:25 -0400 Subject: new helper: end_writeback() Essentially, the minimal variant of ->evict_inode(). It's a trimmed-down clear_inode(), sans any fs callbacks. Once it returns we know that no async writeback will be happening; every ->evict_inode() instance should do that once and do that before doing anything ->write_inode() could interfere with (e.g. freeing the on-disk inode).
