Subject: [PATCH 10/14] fs: factor out a sync_lazytime helper
Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2025 07:26:13 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251114062642.1524837-11-hch@lst.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251114062642.1524837-1-hch@lst.de>

Centralize how we synchronize a lazytime update into the actual on-disk
timestamp into a single helper.
