    [PATCH] BLOCK: Move functions out of buffer code [try #6] · cf9a2ae8
    David Howells authored
    Move some functions out of the buffering code that aren't strictly buffering
    specific.  This is a precursor to being able to disable the block layer.
    
     (*) Moved some stuff out of fs/buffer.c:
    
         (*) The file sync and general sync stuff moved to fs/sync.c.
    
         (*) The superblock sync stuff moved to fs/super.c.
    
         (*) do_invalidatepage() moved to mm/truncate.c.
    
         (*) try_to_release_page() moved to mm/filemap.c.
    
     (*) Moved some related declarations between header files:
    
         (*) declarations for do_invalidatepage() and try_to_release_page() moved
         	 to linux/mm.h.
    
         (*) __set_page_dirty_buffers() moved to linux/buffer_head.h.
