Ah, well... then I'm not sure how the loop should look. I use
f->fsync(file, dentry, ...) where file references the original file
not any of the parent path components.

Obviously, for ext2 and reiserfs (which is what I have here) this
won't matter --- will it for NFS? If so, so I need to open/etc. for
each parent component to get a valid struct file*?

Please bear with me, I'm still learning :)
