2009-11-20nilfs2: flush palloc cache before manipulating data pages of GC datRyusuke Konishi
Data pages in gcdat metadata file (i.e. the secondary DAT for GC), are cleared or even moved back to the normal DAT when a shot of garbage collection was done. Buffer heads held by the palloc cache of gcdat must be cleared before these page cache manipulation. This adds nilfs_palloc_clear_cache() to ensure this.

2009-04-07nilfs2: another dat for garbage collectionRyusuke Konishi
NILFS2 uses another DAT inode during garbage collection to ensure atomicity and consistency of the DAT in the transient state. This twin inode is called GCDAT. This adds functions to initialize the GCDAT and to switch page caches and B-tree node caches between these two inodes.
