[Devel] [PATCH RH7] writeback: Write dirty times for WB_SYNC_ALL writeback

[Kirill Tkhai]

From: Jan Kara <jack at suse.cz>

ms commit dc5ff2b1d66f

Currently we take care to handle I_DIRTY_TIME in vfs_fsync() and
queue_io() so that inodes which have only dirty timestamps are properly
written on fsync(2) and sync(2). However there are other call sites -
most notably going through write_inode_now() - which expect inode to be
clean after WB_SYNC_ALL writeback. This is not currently true as we do
not clear I_DIRTY_TIME in __writeback_single_inode() even for
WB_SYNC_ALL writeback in all the cases. This then resulted in the
following oops because bdev_write_inode() did not clean the inode and
writeback code later stumbled over a dirty inode with detached wb.

Fix the problem by making sure __writeback_single_inode() writes inode
only with dirty times in WB_SYNC_ALL mode.

This loses to dirty inode, when it's called from freeze_bdev().
So, backup loses mtime.

In scope of #PSBM-134225 (but not a not final fix)
