🌸 NAME 🌸

netfs_end_io_write — the girl who announces that the buffered write operation is done 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void netfs_end_io_write (struct inode *inode );

that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🦋

---

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• inode — the file inode. yeah, that one. she's the main character here 👑

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so picture this: you've been doing a buffered write, right? and now you're finished. like, actually finished. so you call netfs_end_io_write to declare that a buffered write operation is done — and she also releases the lock on inode->i_rwsem. 🔓✨

the way that one little call handles the announcement and the unlock? it's giving responsible adult. it's giving "i closed the door behind me." periodt. 💀

ngl bestie, if you don't call this when you're done, that inode->i_rwsem lock is just gonna sit there. rude. 😭
