* I_DIRTY_SYNC Inode is dirty, but doesn't have to be written on
* fdatasync(). i_atime is the usual cause.
* I_DIRTY_DATASYNC Inode is dirty and must be written on fdatasync(), f.e.
* because i_size changed.
* I_DIRTY_DATASYNC Data-related inode changes pending. We keep track of
* these changes separately from I_DIRTY_SYNC so that we
* don't have to write inode on fdatasync() when only
* mtime has changed in it.
* I_DIRTY_PAGES Inode has dirty pages. Inode itself may be clean.
* I_NEW get_new_inode() sets i_state to I_LOCK|I_NEW. Both
* are cleared by unlock_new_inode(), called from iget().
