AFAIK, btrfs has re-dirty hack. 

------------------------------------------------------------------
static int btrfs_writepage(struct page *page, struct writeback_control *wbc)
{
        struct extent_io_tree *tree;


        if (current->flags & PF_MEMALLOC) {
                redirty_page_for_writepage(wbc, page);
                unlock_page(page);
                return 0;
        }
        tree = &BTRFS_I(page->mapping->host)->io_tree;
        return extent_write_full_page(tree, page, btrfs_get_extent, wbc);
}
---------------------------------------------------------------

PF_MEMALLOC mean caller is try_to_free_pages(). (not normal write nor kswapd)
Can't nfs does similar hack? 


I'm not net nor nfs expert. perhaps I'm wrong :-)


Thanks.
