    nfsd: assume writeable exportabled filesystems have f_sync · fae5096a
    J. Bruce Fields authored
    I don't really see how you could claim to support nfsd and not support
    fsync somehow.
    
    And in practice a quick look through the exportable filesystems suggests
    the only ones without an ->fsync are read-only (efs, isofs, squashfs) or
    in-memory (shmem).
    
    Also, performing a write and then returning an error if the sync fails
    (as we would do here in the wgather case) seems unhelpful to clients.
    
    Also remove an incorrect comment.
