That looks to me as if the page cache has got enough dirty data that the
write has triggered writeback at this point. The question is why that is
apparently stuck. I've not tried bonnie recently, but both postmark and
fsx were working happily on the latest kernels. The trace makes it look
as if it is waiting for I/O to complete,
Steve.
