[PATCH 0/5] ext2: Preparation to remove BKL
In this series I've collected the patches that prepare ext2 for BKL removal. It consist mostly of cleanups and additionally introduces a spinlock to protect some of the superblock's fields against concurrent access. I've addressed the feedback kindly provided by Ogawa-san by moving the ext2_write_super() out of ext... 12 Apr 2010 17:02
[PATCH 3/5] ext2: Remove duplicate code from ext2_sync_fs()
Depending in the state (valid or unchecked) of the filesystem either ext2_sync_super() or ext2_commit_super() is called. If the filesystem is currently valid (it is checked), we first mark it unchecked and afterwards duplicate the work that ext2_sync_super() is doing later. Therefore this patch removes the duplicat... 12 Apr 2010 17:02

[PATCH 2/5] ext2: Set the write time in ext2_sync_fs()
This is probably a typo since the write time should actually be updated by ext2_sync_fs() instead of the mount time.
