20  * MS_ASYNC does not start I/O (it used to, up to 2.5.67).
21  * Nor does it marks the relevant pages dirty (it used to up to 2.6.17).
22  * Now it doesn't do anything, since dirty pages are properly tracked.
23  *
24  * The application may now run fsync() to
25  * write out the dirty pages and wait on the writeout and check the result.
26  * Or the application may run fadvise(FADV_DONTNEED) against the fd to start
27  * async writeout immediately.
28  * So by _not_ starting I/O in MS_ASYNC we provide complete flexibility to
