"chunk_size" is an unsigned int and "pos" is an unsigned long.  The
"&amp; ~(chunk_size-1)" operation clears the high 32 bits unintentionally.

The ALIGN() macro does the correct thing.

<title>clean up write_begin usage for directories in pagecache</title>

<content type='text'>
For filesystem that implement directories in pagecache we call
block_write_begin with an already allocated page for this code, while the
normal regular file write path uses the default block_write_begin behaviour.

Get rid of the __foofs_write_begin helper and opencode the normal write_begin
call in foofs_write_begin, while adding a new foofs_prepare_chunk helper for
the directory code.  The added benefit is that foofs_prepare_chunk has
a much saner calling convention.

Note that the interruptible flag passed into block_write_begin is always
ignored if we already pass in a page (see next patch for details), and
we never were doing truncations of exessive blocks for this case either so we
can switch directly to block_write_begin_newtrunc.

gets minix get_dir_page() in sync with its analogs; back in 2007
Nick has switched read_cache_page() and friends to sync behaviour
(i.e.  they wait for the page to get unlocked, check if it's uptodate
and if it isn't return ERR_PTR(-EIO) instead) and removed the
duplicate logics from the callers.  In case of fs/minix/dir.c he'd
removed only half of that...

<title>rename the generic fsync implementations</title>

We don't name our generic fsync implementations very well currently.
The no-op implementation for in-memory filesystems currently is called
simple_sync_file which doesn't make too much sense to start with,
the the generic one for simple filesystems is called simple_fsync
which can lead to some confusion.

This patch renames the generic file fsync method to generic_file_fsync
to match the other generic_file_* routines it is supposed to be used
with, and the no-op implementation to noop_fsync to make it obvious
what to expect.  In addition add some documentation for both methods.

<title>V3 minixfs: add missing directory type checking</title>

There are a few places in the Minix FS code where the "inode" field of a
minix_dir_entry is used without checking first to see if the dirent is
really a minix3_dir_entry.  The inode number in a V1/V2 dirent is 16 bits,
whereas that in a V3 dirent is 32 bits.

Accessing it as a 16 bit field when it really should be accessed as a 32
bit field probably kinda sorta works on a little-endian machine, but leads
to some rather odd behaviour on big-endian machines.
