From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx> XFS has its own buffer cache for metadata that uses submit_bio, which means that it no longer uses the block device pagecache for anything. Create a more lightweight helper that runs the blocksize checks and flushes dirty data and use that instead. No more truncating the pagecache because XFS does not use it or care about it.
