Subject[patch-2.3.43-pre5] optimized fsync(2)/fdatasync(2)
Hi Linus,

I have removed lock/unlock_kernel() from fsync(2)/fdatasyn(2) system
calls. Obviously, I had to go through each filesystem's f_op->fsync()
implementation ensuring that it is SMP-safe. This is the resulting
patch:

http://www.ocston.org/~tigran/patches/fsync-2.3.43-p5.patch

As I only modified filesystems that are in the kernel tree, the
authors of filesystems maintained outside the official kernel should
do something similar for their own filesystems (hence
cc:linux-fsdevel).

Please consider this patch.

Regards,
Tigran.
