- * ntfs_commit_write - commit the received data
- *
- * This is called from generic_file_write() with i_sem held on the inode
- * (@page->mapping->host).  The @page is locked but not kmap()ped.  The source
- * data has already been copied into the @page.  ntfs_prepare_write() has been
- * called before the data copied and it returned success so we can take the
- * results of various BUG checks and some error handling for granted.
- *
- * Need to mark modified blocks dirty so they get written out later when
- * ntfs_writepage() is invoked by the VM.
- *
- * Return 0 on success or -errno on error.
- *
- * Should be using generic_commit_write().  This marks buffers uptodate and
- * dirty, sets the page uptodate if all buffers in the page are uptodate, and
- * updates i_size if the end of io is beyond i_size.  In that case, it also
- * marks the inode dirty.
- *
- * Cannot use generic_commit_write() due to ntfs specialities but can look at
- * it for implementation guidance.
- *
- * If things have gone as outlined in ntfs_prepare_write(), then we do not
- * need to do any page content modifications here at all, except in the write
- * to resident attribute case, where we need to do the uptodate bringing here
- * which we combine with the copying into the mft record which means we save
- * one atomic kmap.
