ext4: call sync_blockdev() before invalidate_bdev() in put_super()
Normally all of the buffers will have been forced out to disk before we call invalidate_bdev(), but there will be some cases, where a file system operation was aborted due to an ext4_error(), where there may still be some dirty buffers in the buffer cache for the device. So try to force them out to memory before calling invalidate_bdev(). This fixes a warning triggered by generic/081: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 3473 at /usr/projects/linux/ext4/fs/block_dev.c:56 __blkdev_put+0xb5/0x16f() Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
