- * Clear i_update_core if the timestamps (or any other

- * This is the same logic as xfs_iflush() but this code can't
- * run at the same time as xfs_iflush because we're in commit
- * processing here and so we have the inode lock held in
- * exclusive mode. Although it doesn't really matter
- * for the timestamps if both routines were to grab the
- * timestamps or not. That would be ok.
- *
- * We clear i_update_core before copying out the data.
- * This is for coordination with our timestamp updates
- * that don't hold the inode lock. They will always
- * update the timestamps BEFORE setting i_update_core,
- * so if we clear i_update_core after they set it we
- * are guaranteed to see their updates to the timestamps
- * either here. Likewise, if they set it after we clear it
- * here, we'll see it either on the next commit of this
- * inode or the next time the inode gets flushed via
- * xfs_iflush(). This depends on strongly ordered memory
- * semantics, but we have that. We use the SYNCHRONIZE
- * macro to make sure that the compiler does not reorder
- * the i_update_core access below the data copy below.
