Bug in block_write_full_page (fs/buffer.c)?

[Martin Jambor <jamborm@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

when block_write_full_page (fs/buffer.c) is called and the page is
fully outside the i_size, the function does not call
end_page_writeback() even though Documentation/filesystems/Locking
explicitly says that any implementation of aops->writepage must do so
in any case:

"If no I/O is submitted, the filesystem must run end_page_writeback()
against the page before returning from writepage."

Is this a bug, is the documentation wrong or is it just me?

TIA,

Martin Jambor
