322 * operation. Not suitable for data integrity operations.
324 * SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE (or SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_AFTER): wait for
325 * completion of writeout of all pages in the range. This will be used after an
326 * earlier SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE|SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE operation to wait
327 * for that operation to complete and to return the result.
329 * SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE|SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE|SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_AFTER:
330 * a traditional sync() operation. This is a write-for-data-integrity operation
