Note that plugging for O_SYNC writes is also removed. The user may pass arbitrary @size arguments, which may be much larger than the preferable I/O size, or may cross extent/device boundaries. Let the lower layers handle the plugging. The plugging code here actually turns them into no-ops. CC: Li Shaohua Signed-off-by: Wu Fengguang Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
