Subject: ext3: Add replace-on-truncate hueristics for data=writeback mode
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f7ab34ea723ed304b19698efca85d6f40cecd99b;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

ext3: Add replace-on-truncate hueristics for data=writeback mode

In data=writeback mode, start an asynchronous flush when closing a
file which had been previously truncated down to zero.  This lowers
the probability of data loss in the case of applications that attempt
to replace a file using truncate.
