Subject: [PATCH 1/2] filemap: Remove use of wait bookmarks
Date: Tue, 10 Oct 2023 04:58:28 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231010035829.544242-1-willy@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231010032833.398033-1-robinlai@tencent.com>

The original problem of the overly long list of waiters on a
locked page was solved properly by commit 9a1ea439b16b ("mm:
put_and_wait_on_page_locked() while page is migrated").  In
the meantime, using bookmarks for the writeback bit can cause
livelocks, so we need to stop using them.
