[PATCH 09/14] Conversion of nr_dirty to per zone counter

Christoph Lameter
2006-06-08T23:03:26Z

Conversion of nr_dirty to a per zone counter

This makes nr_dirty a per zone counter. Looping over all processors
is avoided during writeback state determination.

The counter aggregation for nr_dirty had to be undone in the NFS layer
since it summed up the page counts from multiple zones.
