From: Jan Kara Subject: [PATCH 1/6] ext2: Return BH_New buffers for zeroed blocks Date: Mon, 12 Dec 2016 17:47:03 +0100 Message-ID: <20161212164708.23244-2-jack@suse.cz> References: <20161212164708.23244-1-jack@suse.cz> Cc: Ross Zwisler , , , Johannes Weiner , Jan Kara To: Return-path: In-Reply-To: <20161212164708.23244-1-jack@suse.cz> Sender: owner-linux-mm@kvack.org List-Id: linux-ext4.vger.kernel.org So far we did not return BH_New buffers from ext2_get_blocks() when we allocated and zeroed-out a block for DAX inode to avoid racy zeroing in DAX code. This zeroing is gone these days so we can remove the workaround.
