vfs: remove unused superblock helpers
Remove the 'sb_mark_dirty()', 'sb_mark_clean()' and 'sb_is_dirty()' helpers which are not used. I introduced them 2 years and the intention was to make all file-systems use them in order to be able to optimize 'sync_supers()'. However, Al Viro vetoed my patches at the end and asked me to push superblock management down to file-systems and get rid of the 's_dirt' flag completely, as well as kill 'sync_supers()' altogether. Thus, remove the helpers. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
