Subject: drbd: drbd_md_sync before calling user space helpers
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1090c056c5eb6d5335cceb381683e77ac24c71ab;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

drbd: drbd_md_sync before calling user space helpers

Just in case we have some pending meta data changes to sync, do it
before we call our userland helper, as that may take some time,
or even cause a hard reboot.
