vfs: Call ->sync_fs() even if s_dirt is 0 (version 4)
sync_filesystems() has a condition that if wait == 0 and s_dirt == 0, then ->sync_fs() isn't called. This does not really make much sence since s_dirt is generally used by a filesystem to mean that ->write_super() needs to be called. But ->sync_fs() does different things. I even suspect that some filesystems (btrfs?) sets s_dirt just to fool this logic. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
