Subject[PATCH] ext4: Fix synchronization of quota files in journal=data mode
Date
In journal=data mode, it is not enough to do write_inode_now as done in
vfs_quota_on() to write all data to their final location (which is needed
for quota_read to work correctly). Calling journal_flush() does its job.
