Subject: ext4: Issue the discard operation *before* releasing the blocks to be reused
X-Git-Url: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux%2Fkernel%2Fgit%2Ftorvalds%2Flinux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=b90f687018e6d6c77d981b09203780f7001407e5
ext4: Issue the discard operation *before* releasing the blocks to be reused
[ backported to 2.6.3[23] ]
Otherwise, we can end up having data corruption because the blocks
could get reused and then discarded!
