When using indirect blocks there is no possibility to have any unwritten
extents. So wait for them in ext4_ind_direct_IO() is just bogus.

Hi Jan,

Just for the note, this patch conflicts with my patch set of extent
status tree.  I guess your patch series will be applied before my patch
set.  So I will rebase my patch set against the latest kernel. :-)

Otherwise, the patch looks good to me.  You can add:

Actually, the extent status tree patches are already in my tree,
although I'm still testing and reviewing them. so they haven't been
finalized yet (which is why I haven't sent an e-mail ack).  If the
conflict is minor, I'll take care of it.  If it's non-trivial, I'll
yell for help.  :-)

  This patch actually isn't in Zheng's latest submission so there shouldn't
be any conflict.

Hi Ted,

Sorry for the delay reply because of travelling.  As Jan said above, I
have dropped the patch of unwritten extent conversion from the patch set
of extent status tree.  So there isn't any conflict.

Thanks,
                                                - Zheng
