[PATCH v1 2/9] ext4: write superblock only once on unmount

From: Artem Bityutskiy
Date: Tue Mar 20 2012 - 10:41:36 EST


From: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

In some rather rare cases it is possible that ext4 may the superblock to the
media twice. This patch makes sure this does not happen. This should speed up
unmounting in those cases.
