[dm-devel] [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.10 081/137] dm writecache: commit just one block, not a full page

[Sasha Levin]

From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka at redhat.com>

[ Upstream commit 991bd8d7bc78966b4dc427b53a144f276bffcd52 ]

Some architectures have pages larger than 4k and committing a full
page causes needless overhead.

Fix this by writing a single block when committing the superblock.
