The patch titled md: Change md/bitmap file handling to use bmap to file blocks-fix has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is md-change-md-bitmap-file-handling-to-use-bmap-to-file-blocks-fix.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this From: NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxx> Fix problems with new bmap based access to bitmap files. 1/ When not using a file based bitmap, attach a NULL list of buffers to each page so the common free_buffer routine can cope. 2/ Use submit_bh to read as well as write, rather than vfs_read. This makes read and write more symetric. 3/ sync the file before reading, to ensure that the page cache has no dirty pages that might get written out later.
