    Subject[PATCH 5/6] Added flush_disk to factor out common buffer cache flushing code.
    Date
    Added flush_disk to factor out common buffer cache flushing code.

    We need to be able to flush the buffer cache for for more than
    just when a disk is changed, so we factor out common cache flush code
    in check_disk_change() to an internal flush_disk() routine. This
    routine will then be used for both disk changes and disk resizes (in a
    later patch).

    Include the disk name in the text indicating that there are busy
    inodes on the device and increase the KERN severity of the message.
