SubjectRe: [PATCH 3/3][reiser4] dont get radix-tree dirty tagging out of sync
I tried just using __set_page_dirty_nobuffers but that caused issues
with ext3/ext4 (i can send a bug trace later if needed).

                                __inc_bdi_stat(mapping->backing_dev_info,
                                                BDI_RECLAIMABLE);
                                task_io_account_write(PAGE_CACHE_SIZE);

^^^ the above code in __set_page_dirty_nobuffers causes an issue with
do_writepages in ext3/4 when I use something like the code below:

int reiser4_set_page_dirty_internal(struct page *page)
{
     return __set_page_dirty_nobuffers(page);
}
