Hi,
I'd like to hook into the end_io reporting chain by replacing the b_end_io
function pointer by an own end_io
function that restores the original values and calls the previous end_io
function after io.
Unfortunatly if the previous function was end_buffer_io_async it unlocks
the bh->b_page too early since
it checks for the b_end_io == end_buffer_io_async.
With the following patch that works but it maybe isn't the best way to do
it. Comments are highly welcome...
Stefan
