ext4: Avoid updating the inode table bh twice in no journal mode
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This is a cleanup of commit 91ac6f4.  Since ext4_mark_inode_dirty()
has already called ext4_mark_iloc_dirty(), which in turn calls
ext4_do_update_inode(), it's not necessary to have ext4_write_inode()
call ext4_do_update_inode() in no journal mode.  Indeed, it would be
duplicated work.
