[PATCH] Fix JFS after clear_page_dirty() removal



This patch removes some questionable code that attempted to make a
no-longer-used page easier to reclaim.

Calling metapage_writepage against such a page will not result in any
I/O being performed, so removing this code shouldn't be a big deal.

[ It's likely that we could have just replaced the "clear_page_dirty()"
  call with a call to "cancel_dirty_page()" instead, but in the
  meantime this is cleaner and simpler anyway, so unless there is some
  overriding reason (and Dave implies there isn't) I'll just use this
  patch as-is.			- Linus ]
