SubjectWhy does sys_fsync have a lock_kernel around it?
Surely it should unlock before  file->f_op->fsync(file, dentry);

This won't scale for large fileservers..... and it seems unjustified.

Get Linux (http://www.kernel.org) plus ReiserFS
(http://devlinux.org/namesys). If you sell an OS or
internet appliance, buy a port of ReiserFS! If you
need customizations and industrial grade support, we sell them.
