SYNOPSIS
       void mark_buffer_dirty(struct buffer_head * bh);

DESCRIPTION
       mark_buffer_dirty will set the dirty bit against the buffer, then set
       its backing page dirty, then tag the page as dirty in its
       address_space´s radix tree and then attach the address_space´s inode to
       its superblock´s dirty inode list.

       mark_buffer_dirty is atomic. It takes
       bh->b_page->mapping->private_lock, mapping->tree_lock and the global
       inode_lock.
