Subject: [PATCH] revert ext3-writepages-support-for-writeback-mode
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d17d7fa44dbe1f12031773e27eda9e939024a037;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[PATCH] revert ext3-writepages-support-for-writeback-mode

This had a fatal lock ranking bug: we do journal_start outside
mpage_writepages()'s lock_page().

Revert the whole thing, think again.
