My viewpoint is write_checkpoint() flushes node and dentry pages, which provides
another better victims. Another concern is get_valid_blocks and IS_CURSEG are
not covered by any lock.

What NetFlow Analyzer can do for you? Monitors network bandwidth and traffic
patterns at an interface-level. Reveals which users, apps, and protocols are
consuming the most bandwidth. Provides multi-vendor support for NetFlow,
J-Flow, sFlow and other flows. Make informed decisions using capacity planning
reports.http://sdm.link/zohodev2dev
