Subject: NFS: Allow redirtying of a completed unstable write.
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.27-rc1~1052^2~1^2~27
X-Git-Url: https://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=pandora-kernel.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=e468bae97d243fe0e1515abaa1f7d0edf1476ad0

NFS: Allow redirtying of a completed unstable write.

Currently, if an unstable write completes, we cannot redirty the page in
order to reflect a new change in the page data until after we've sent a
COMMIT request.

This patch allows a page rewrite to proceed without the unnecessary COMMIT
step, putting it immediately back onto the dirty page list, undoing the
VM unstable write accounting, and removing the NFS_PAGE_TAG_COMMIT tag from
the NFS radix tree.
