- * sync_inodes - writes all inodes to disk

- * sync_inodes() goes through each super block's dirty inode list, writes the
- * inodes out, waits on the writeout and puts the inodes back on the normal
- * list.
- *
- * This is for sys_sync(). fsync_dev() uses the same algorithm. The subtle
- * part of the sync functions is that the blockdev "superblock" is processed
- * last. This is because the write_inode() function of a typical fs will
- * perform no I/O, but will mark buffers in the blockdev mapping as dirty.
- * What we want to do is to perform all that dirtying first, and then write
- * back all those inode blocks via the blockdev mapping in one sweep. So the
- * additional (somewhat redundant) sync_blockdev() calls here are to make
- * sure that really happens. Because if we call sync_inodes_sb(wait=1) with
- * outstanding dirty inodes, the writeback goes block-at-a-time within the
- * filesystem's write_inode(). This is extremely slow.
