[partial backport for dependency - xfs_ioc_space() still uses XFS_PREALLOC_SYNC] Callers can acheive the same thing by calling xfs_log_force_inode() after making their modifications. There is no need for xfs_update_prealloc_flags() to do this. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@xxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
