My understanding is, that the intention of BUFFERED_BLOCKSIZE is, to
divide any page in the page cache into bhs of an appropriate size to be
handled by the upper layer (e.g. FS), right. As a consquence it should be
dependent on the blocksize of the upper layer as represented by the
inode->i_sb->s_blocksize.
Please review the attached patch for incompatibilities to other
architectures
or contradictionary effects to the intended purpose of introducing
BUFFERED_BLOCKSIZE and consider to apply.
happy hacking,
Holger
