567  *
568  * As concurrent write sharing of an inode is expected to be very rare and
569  * memcg only tracks page ownership on first-use basis severely confining
570  * the usefulness of such sharing, cgroup writeback tracks ownership
571  * per-inode.  While the support for concurrent write sharing of an inode
572  * is deemed unnecessary, an inode being written to by different cgroups at
573  * different points in time is a lot more common, and, more importantly,
574  * charging only by first-use can too readily lead to grossly incorrect
575  * behaviors (single foreign page can lead to gigabytes of writeback to be
576  * incorrectly attributed).
577  *
578  * To resolve this issue, cgroup writeback detects the majority dirtier of
579  * an inode and transfers the ownership to it.  To avoid unnnecessary
580  * oscillation, the detection mechanism keeps track of history and gives
581  * out the switch verdict only if the foreign usage pattern is stable over
582  * a certain amount of time and/or writeback attempts.
583  *
584  * On each writeback attempt, @wbc tries to detect the majority writer
585  * using Boyer-Moore majority vote algorithm.  In addition to the byte
586  * count from the majority voting, it also counts the bytes written for the
587  * current wb and the last round's winner wb (max of last round's current
588  * wb, the winner from two rounds ago, and the last round's majority
589  * candidate).  Keeping track of the historical winner helps the algorithm
590  * to semi-reliably detect the most active writer even when it's not the
591  * absolute majority.
592  *
593  * Once the winner of the round is determined, whether the winner is
594  * foreign or not and how much IO time the round consumed is recorded in
595  * inode->i_wb_frn_history.  If the amount of recorded foreign IO time is
