Some of the higher layers like iomap takes inode_lock() when calling generic_write_sync(). Also writeback already happens from other paths without inode lock, so it's difficult to say that we really need sync_mapping_buffers() to take any inode locking here. Having said that, let's add generic_buffers_fsync/_noflush() implementation in buffer.c with no inode_lock/unlock() for now so that filesystems like ext2 and ext4's nojournal mode can use it. Ext4 when got converted to iomap for direct-io already copied it's own variant of __generic_file_fsync() without lock. This patch adds generic_buffers_fsync() & generic_buffers_fsync_noflush() implementations for use in filesystems like ext2 & ext4 respectively. Later we can review other filesystems as well to see if we can make generic_buffers_fsync/_noflush() which does not take any inode_lock() as the default path.
