[Devel] [PATCH 1/1] cr: ext4: use filemap_checkpoint for ext4 file backed mmaps

[Serge E. Hallyn]

I don't know if this is "the right thing" to do, or if
there will be special ext4 cases which this doesn't handle,
but all of my cr_tests pass with this patch applied on F11
with an ext4 rootfs (and fail without on trying to checkpoint
a library on ext4fs bc it has its own vm_ops but no
vm_ops->checkpoint()).
