[PATCH 34/41] jbd2: Modify ASYNC_COMMIT code to not rely on queue draining on barrier

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Fri Sep 03 2010 - 06:35:49 EST


From: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx>

Currently JBD2 relies blkdev_issue_flush() draining the queue when ASYNC_COMMIT
feature is set. This property is going away so make JBD2 wait for buffers it
needs on its own before submitting the cache flush.
