Hi Linus,
The bug fix in the vfs pull request that I just sent you makes
__sb_start_write simple enough that it becomes possible to refactor the
function into smaller, simpler static inline helpers in linux/fs.h. The
cleanup is straightforward, but as we're well into the stabilization
phase for 5.10, I'm perfectly happy to defer this to 5.11.
These changes also merge cleanly with upstream as of a few minutes ago,
so please let me know if anything strange happens.
