[Cluster-devel] [PATCH 09/16] GFS2: Eliminate redundant buffer_head manipulation in gfs2_unlink_inode

Newsgroups com.redhat.cluster-devel,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel
Message-ID <[email protected]>
From: Bob Peterson <[email protected]>

Since we now have a dirty_inode that takes care of manipulating the
inode buffer and writing from the inode to the buffer, we can
eliminate some unnecessary buffer manipulations in gfs2_unlink_inode
that are now redundant.
