Hi Jaegeuk,

Thank you for letting us know. We have another question:

@f2fs_sync_file()

  if (unlikely(f2fs_readonly(inode->i_sb)))
     return 0;

Isn't it better to report '-EROFS' as ext3/4? I suspect that f2fs
returns 0 as fsync() man page doesn't specify such error condition. We
are wondering if it is the real reason for f2fs's design decision.

Thank you,
Taesoo
