Subject: [PATCH 02/13] writeback: consolidate variable names in balance_dirty_pages()
Date: Wed, 17 Nov 2010 12:27:22 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101117042849.531141617@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20101117042720.033773013@intel.com
[-- Attachment #1: writeback-cleanup-name-merge.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3061 bytes --]
Lots of lenthy tests.. Let's compact the names
*_dirty = NR_FILE_DIRTY + NR_WRITEBACK + NR_UNSTABLE_NFS
balance_dirty_pages() only cares about the above dirty sum except
in one place -- on starting background writeback.
