Subject: mm/filemap: add filemap_fdatawrite_range_kick() helper
X-Git-Tag: v6.14-rc1~77^2~20
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=dddc559f2e7cff9c6525150cd29ef3a4f6692b26;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

mm/filemap: add filemap_fdatawrite_range_kick() helper

Works like filemap_fdatawrite_range(), except it's a non-integrity data
writeback and hence only starts writeback on the specified range.  Will
help facilitate generically starting uncached writeback from
generic_write_sync(), as header dependencies preclude doing this inline
from fs.h.
