14 * Big-endian to little-endian byte-swapping/bitmaps by
15 * David S. Miller (davem@caip.rutgers.edu), 1995
16 *
17 * Removed unnecessary code duplication for little endian machines
18 * and excessive __inline__s.
19 * Andi Kleen, 1997
20 *
21 * Major simplications and cleanup - we only need to do the metadata, because
22 * we can depend on generic_block_fdatasync() to sync the data blocks.
