I suppose that's unrelated, since I'm specifically referring to the way the buffer is handled in the TOSHIBA_RBTX4927 code -- the __wbflush() backend is not invoked by wbflush() and calls like mb() (used by portable drivers) unless the kernel is configured in an unobvious way and then there is duplicate "sync" (but maybe that's needed, thus my question among others).
