This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: mm: fix arithmetic for max_prop_frac when setting max_ratio
Date: Tue, 19 Dec 2023 22:25:08 +0800

Since now bdi->max_ratio is part per million, fix the wrong arithmetic for
max_prop_frac when setting max_ratio.  Otherwise the miscalculated
max_prop_frac will affect the incrementing of writeout completion count
when max_ratio is not 100%.
