    ext4: remove calls to ext4_jbd2_file_inode() from delalloc write path · f3b59291

    The calls to ext4_jbd2_file_inode() are needed to guarantee that we do
    not expose stale data in the data=ordered mode.  However, they are not
    necessary because in all of the cases where we have newly allocated
    blocks in the delayed allocation write path, we immediately submit the
    dirty pages for I/O.  Hence, we can avoid the overhead of adding the
    inode to the list of inodes whose data pages will be to be flushed out
    to disk completely during the next commit operation.
