      [PATCH] User FIXMAP area simplification · 47382294
      Roland McGrath authored
      As per Linus' proposal: make special macros for the user-accessible
      fixmap, simplifying access checks to make it trivial to handle ia64
      issues.

      [PATCH] fix writeback for dirty ramdisk blockdev inodes · 71a1f72c
      Andrew Morton authored
      Once the blockdev inode for /dev/ram0 is dirtied we have a memory-backed
      inode on the blockdev superblock's s_dirty list.
      
      sync_sb_inodes() sees the memory-backed inode on the superblock and assumes
      that all the other inodes on the superblock are also memory-backed.  This is
      not true for the blockdev superblock!  We forget to write out dirty pages
      against the following blockdevs.
      
      Fix this by just leaving the inode dirty and moving on to inspect the other
      blockdev inodes on sb->s_io.
      
      (This is a little inefficient: an alternative is to leave dirtied
      memory-backed inodes on inode_in_use, so nobody ever even considers them for
      writeout.  But that introduces an inconsistency and is a bit kludgey).
