[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 2/2] ocfs2: Remove ocfs2_sync_inode()

[Jan Kara]

ocfs2_sync_inode() is used only from ocfs2_sync_file(). But all data has
already been written before calling ocfs2_sync_file() and ocfs2 doesn't use
inode's private_list for tracking metadata buffers thus sync_mapping_buffers()
is superfluous as well.
