Subject: [PATCH 01/12] writeback: remove unused nonblocking and congestion checks
Date: Wed, 18 Nov 2009 16:26:49 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091118082845.565669527@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20091118082648.140755818@intel.com
[-- Attachment #1: writeback-remove-congested-checks-linux_fs_fs-writeback.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1240 bytes --]
- no one is calling wb_writeback and write_cache_pages with
wbc.nonblocking=1 any more
- lumpy pageout will want to do nonblocking writeback without the
congestion wait
So remove the congestion checks as suggested by Chris.
