Subject: [PATCH 07/12] writeback: pass in '0' for nr_pages writeback in laptop mode
Date: Wed, 27 Sep 2017 14:13:54 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1506543239-31470-8-git-send-email-axboe@kernel.dk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1506543239-31470-1-git-send-email-axboe@kernel.dk>

Laptop mode really wants to writeback the number of dirty
pages and inodes. Instead of calculating this in the caller,
just pass in 0 and let wakeup_flusher_threads() handle it.

Use the new wakeup_flusher_threads_bdi() instead of rolling
our own.
