Re: [PATCH] JFS: do not ignore return code from write_one_page()

Andrew,

Do you want to pick this up into akpm-current? I could push it through
the jfs tree, but without the change to write_one_page(), my version of
the patch would need a manual merge. It'd be a simple one, so maybe
that's not a big deal.

Thanks,
Shaggy
