| H A D | writeback.h | cb9bd115 Wed Jul 21 23:50:57 CDT 2010 Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com> writeback: introduce writeback_control.inodes_written
The flusher works on dirty inodes in batches, and may quit prematurely
if the batch of inodes happen to be metadata-only dirtied: in this case
wbc->nr_to_write won't be decreased at all, which stands for "no pages
written" but also mis-interpreted as "no progress".
So introduce writeback_control.inodes_written to count the inodes get
cleaned from VFS POV. A non-zero value means there are some progress on
writeback, in which case more writeback can be tried.
