Subject: mm/page-writeback: consolidate wb_thresh bumping logic into __wb_calc_thresh
Date: Thu, 21 Nov 2024 18:05:39 +0800
Address the feedback from 39ac99852fca ("mm/page-writeback: raise
wb_thresh to prevent write blocking with strictlimit)". The wb_thresh
bumping logic is scattered across wb_position_ratio, __wb_calc_thresh, and
wb_update_dirty_ratelimit. For consistency, consolidate all wb_thresh
bumping logic into __wb_calc_thresh.
