  Hi,

  this series of two patches fixes a bug in sys_sync() which could result in
not all data being safely on disk after this function returns. It also fixes
the same issue in fsync_super() which leads to assertion failure in JBD with
Jens's per-BDI writeback patches.
  The first patch fixes those two bugs, the second patch just simplifies the
code afterwards.
