    exfat: improve performance of exfat_free_cluster when using dirsync mount option · f728760a
    Hyeongseok Kim authored
    There are stressful update of cluster allocation bitmap when using
    dirsync mount option which is doing sync buffer on every cluster bit
    clearing. This could result in performance degradation when deleting
    big size file.
    Fix to update only when the bitmap buffer index is changed would make
    less disk access, improving performance especially for truncate operation.
    
    Testing with Samsung 256GB sdcard, mounted with dirsync option
    (mount -t exfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /temp/mount -o dirsync)
    
    Remove 4GB file, blktrace result.
