From e568df6b84ff05a22467503afc11bee7a6ba0700 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Wed, 10 Aug 2016 16:42:53 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ext2: Return BH_New buffers for zeroed blocks 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.
