... the other patches rather depend on the folio work.
Yes, these looks useful to me as well.

And in fact I suspect the code in __set_page_dirty_no_writeback should
really be the default if no ->set_page_dirty is set up.  It is the
same code as the no-mapping case and really makes sense as the default
case..
yes; i was even wondering if that should be conditional on one of the
"no writeback" bits in mapping ...
