From 4b813f09405823dcbb27a434f6ddcd1741e55e9b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrew Price Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2015 07:41:21 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] GFS2: fallocate: do not rely on file_update_time to mark the inode dirty Previously __gfs2_fallocate() relied on file_update_time() marking the inode dirty, but that's not a safe assumption as that function doesn't dirty the inode in some cases. Mark the inode dirty explicitly.
