In the case that an inode has dirty timestamp for longer than the lazytime expiration timeout (or if all such inodes are being flushed out due to a sync or syncfs system call), we need to inform the file system that the inode is dirty so that the inode's timestamps can be copied out to the on-disk data structures. That's because if the file system supports lazytime, it will have ignored the dirty_inode(inode, I_DIRTY_TIME) notification when the timestamp was modified in memory.q Previously, this was accomplished by calling mark_inode_dirty_sync(), but that has the unfortunate side effect of also putting the inode the writeback list, and that's not necessary in this case, since we will immediately call write_inode() afterwards. Replace the call to mark_inode_dirty_sync() with a new lazytime_expired method to clearly separate out this case. Eric Biggers noticed that this was causing problems for fscrypt after the key was removed[1]. Based on a patch from Theodore Ts'o.
