[patch 36/40] mm: do_sync_mapping_range integrity fix

[Greg KH]

2.6.27-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Nick Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxx>

commit ee53a891f47444c53318b98dac947ede963db400 upstream.

Chris Mason notices do_sync_mapping_range didn't actually ask for data
integrity writeout.  Unfortunately, it is advertised as being usable for
data integrity operations.

This is a data integrity bug.
