[PATCH 06/14] CacheFiles: Add a hook to write a single page of datato an inode [try #2]

From: David Howells
Date: Thu Aug 09 2007 - 12:38:29 EST


Add an address space operation to write one single page of data to an inode at
a page-aligned location (thus permitting the implementation to be highly
optimised).

This is used by CacheFiles to store the contents of netfs pages into their
backing file pages.

Supply a generic implementation for this that uses the prepare_write() and
commit_write() address_space operations to bound a copy directly into the page
cache.

Hook the Ext2 and Ext3 operations to the generic implementation.
