970 *
971 * Put the inode on the super block's dirty list.
972 *
973 * CAREFUL! We mark it dirty unconditionally, but move it onto the

975 * If it was not hashed, it will never be added to the dirty list
976 * even if it is later hashed, as it will have been marked dirty already.
977 *
978 * In short, make sure you hash any inodes _before_ you start marking
979 * them dirty.
980 *
981 * This function *must* be atomic for the I_DIRTY_PAGES case -
982 * set_page_dirty() is called under spinlock in several places.
983 *
984 * Note that for blockdevs, inode->dirtied_when represents the dirtying time of
985 * the block-special inode (/dev/hda1) itself. And the ->dirtied_when field of
986 * the kernel-internal blockdev inode represents the dirtying time of the
987 * blockdev's pages. This is why for I_DIRTY_PAGES we always use
988 * page->mapping->host, so the page-dirtying time is recorded in the internal
989 * blockdev inode.
