Subject: [PATCH 10/11] vfs: Export wakeup_pdflush
Date: Wed, 27 May 2009 15:01:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1243429268-3028-11-git-send-email-jack@suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1243429268-3028-1-git-send-email-jack@suse.cz>

When we are running out of free space on a filesystem, we want to flush dirty
pages in the filesystem so that blocks reserved via delayed allocation get
written and unnecessary block reservation is released. Export wakeup_pdflush()
so that filesystem can start such writeback.
