Linux 2.6.35 compat, fops->fsync()
The fsync() callback in the file_operations structure used to take 3 arguments. The callback now only takes 2 arguments because the dentry argument was determined to be unused by all consumers. To handle this a compatibility prototype was added to ensure the right prototype is used. Our implementation never used the dentry argument either so it's just a matter of using the right prototype.
