Subject: VFS: export sync_sb_inodes
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4ee6afd34409d296782a5b667d7991b1050e910a;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

VFS: export sync_sb_inodes

This patch exports the 'sync_sb_inodes()' which is needed for
UBIFS because it has to force write-back from time to time.
Namely, the UBIFS budgeting subsystem forces write-back when
its pessimistic callculations show that there is no free
space on the media.
