From 94412a96c4553255bda7a232a349059dd7543338 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: OGAWA Hirofumi Date: Tue, 20 Feb 2007 13:57:55 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] FAT: DIO-write fallback to normal buffered If the DIO write on FAT is expanding the size, it will be fail by -EINVAL, because FAT can't handle it now. This patch fallback it to the normal buffered-write and would return success.
