Subject: ext4: simplify ext4_writepage()
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a42afc5f56f319107e987aa6adf2f65d93d527c7;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

ext4: simplify ext4_writepage()

The actual code in ext4_writepage() is unnecessarily convoluted.
Simplify it so it is easier to understand, but otherwise logically
equivalent.
