I queued this up for 4.5, but I'm feeling a bit uneasy about it. But it's either that, or revert 5ff8eaac1636 and fix it for real in 4.6. Jan/Tejun, what do you think?Given that this only matters for cgroup writeback cases, this should still be fairly low impact, so I don't think it'd matter too much whether we fix this in this cycle or for 4.6. However, that also means that we're not risking much by doing it in this cycle, so I'd vote for doing it now.
Yeah, without CGROUP_WRITEBACK enabled this patch is NOP so I don't care much when this gets merged. Honza -- Jan Kara [off-list ref] SUSE Labs, CR
