3.13.11-ckt20 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 64b4e2526d1cf6e6a4db6213d6e2b6e6ab59479a upstream. "ocfs2 syncs the wrong range" had been broken; prior to it the code was doing the wrong thing in case of O_APPEND, all right, but _after_ it we were syncing the wrong range in 100% cases. *ppos, aka iocb->ki_pos is incremented prior to that point, so we are always doing sync on the area _after_ the one we'd written to.
