- * hfs_write_super()

- * Description:
- *   This function is called by the VFS only. When the filesystem
- *   is mounted r/w it updates the MDB on disk.
- * Input Variable(s):
- *   struct super_block *sb: Pointer to the hfs superblock
- * Output Variable(s):
- *   NONE
- * Returns:
- *   void
- * Preconditions:
- *   'sb' points to a "valid" (struct super_block).
- * Postconditions:
- *   The MDB is marked 'unsuccessfully unmounted' by clearing bit 8 of drAtrb
- *   (hfs_put_super() must set this flag!). Some MDB fields are updated
- *   and the MDB buffer is written to disk by calling hfs_mdb_commit().
