    xfs: remove periodic superblock writeback · df308bcf
    Christoph Hellwig authored
    All modifications to the superblock are done transactional through
    xfs_trans_log_buf, so there is no reason to initiate periodic
    asynchronous writeback.  This only removes the superblock from the
    delwri list and will lead to sub-optimal I/O scheduling.
    
    Cut down xfs_sync_fsdata now that it's only used for synchronous
    superblock writes and move the log coverage checks into the two
    callers.
