From: Miklos Szeredi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Add a per-filesystem limit for the number of dirty pages. If half the limit is reached, background writeback is started. If the limit is reached, then start some writeback and wait until the the number goes below the limit again.
The dirty limit is currently hardcoded at 1MB. This limiting is necessary, so that buggy or unfriendly filesystems don't hurt system performance too badly.
