-Subject: [PATCH] md: protect against crash upon fsync on ro array
+Subject: md: protect against crash upon fsync on ro array
 Bug-Debian: http://bugs.debian.org/696650
 
-If an fsync occurrs on a read-only array, we need to send a
+commit 0ecfa11f08c79be05eb00bba537e764e6672774d upstream.
+
+If an fsync occurs on a read-only array, we need to send a
 completion for the IO and may not increment the active IO count.
 Otherwise, we hit a bug trace and can't stop the MD array anymore.
 
-As return value -EROFS makes most sense.
+By advice of Christoph Hellwig we return success upon a flush
+request but we return -EROFS for other writes.
+We detect flush requests by checking if the bio has zero sectors.
