Subject: [PATCH 2/6] writeback: remove unused nonblocking and congestion checks (write_cache_pages)
Date: Fri, 27 Nov 2009 18:59:10 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091127110407.360489157@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20091127105908.944744141@intel.com
[-- Attachment #1: writeback-remove-congested-checks-linux_mm_page-writeback.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1382 bytes --]
No one is calling wb_writeback and write_cache_pages with
wbc.nonblocking=1 any more. And lumpy pageout will want to do
nonblocking writeback without the congestion wait.
