1246    generic_file_write() is only appropriate for filesystems that are not seeking to optimize performance and want
1247    something simple that works.  It is not for serious use by general purpose filesystems, excepting the one that it was
1248    written for (ext2/3).  This is for several reasons:
1249
1250    * It has no understanding of any filesystem specific optimizations.
1251
1252    * It enters the filesystem repeatedly for each page that is written.
1253
1254    * It depends on reiserfs_get_block() function which if implemented by reiserfs performs costly search_by_key
1255    * operation for each page it is supplied with. By contrast reiserfs_file_write() feeds as much as possible at a time
1256    * to reiserfs which allows for fewer tree traversals.
1257
1258    * Each indirect pointer insertion takes a lot of cpu, because it involves memory moves inside of blocks.
1259
1260    * Asking the block allocation code for blocks one at a time is slightly less efficient.
1261
1262    All of these reasons for not using only generic file write were understood back when reiserfs was first miscoded to
1263    use it, but we were in a hurry to make code freeze, and so it couldn't be revised then.  This new code should make
1264    things right finally.
