Subject: [PATCH 7/7] writeback: requeue_io_wait() when failed to grab superblock
Date: Thu, 20 Oct 2011 23:22:47 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111020153706.523067174@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20111020152240.751936131@intel.com

[-- Attachment #1: writeback-more_io_wait-grab.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1065 bytes --]

It's some block condition that's not really related to the inode, but
still need to move it to b_more_io_wait to prevent possible busy looping.
