There is more work, but I am sending this early to get an early feedback. Note, I only gave few test to my patches - booted Fedora, made sure bdi writeback threads are created/deleted/doing writeback, hotplugged external USB drive, saw writeback thread created, unplugged and saw it be removed. Did some work while running a kernel with these patches. The patches are against your for-2.6.36 branch. My long-term plan is to get rid of unneeded wake-ups, but I'm still jus= t reading your code and learning, and clean-up / fix things I spot. --=20 Best Regards, Artem Bityutskiy (=D0=90=D1=80=D1=82=D1=91=D0=BC =D0=91=D0=B8=D1=82=D1=8E= =D1=86=D0=BA=D0=B8=D0=B9) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel= " in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
