Subject: [PATCH] mm: account NR_WRITTEN at IO completion time
Date: Wed, 13 Jul 2011 15:24:29 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110713222429.GA14098@localhost> (raw)

NR_WRITTEN is now accounted at block IO enqueue time, which is not
very accurate as to common understanding. This moves NR_WRITTEN
accounting to the IO completion time and makes it more consistent
with BDI_WRITTEN, which is used for bandwidth estimation.
