I had to keep some of the flush_dirty_buffer calls as page_launder
wasn't triggering enough i/o on its own.  What I'd like to do now is
experiment with changing bdflush to only write pages off the inactive
dirty lists.

Will kupdate continue to enforce the "no dirty buffer older than 
XX" guarantee?

Yes, kupdate still calls flush_dirty_buffers(1).  I'm curious to see how
your write early stuff interacts with it all though....
