Re: [PATCH 2/5] writeback: dirty position control

+	x_intercept = setpoint + 2 * span;

   ^^ BTW, why do you have 2*span here? It can result in x_intercept being
~3*bdi_thresh... So maybe you should use bdi_thresh/2 in the computation of
span?

OK, I'll follow your suggestion to use

        span = 8 * write_bw, for single bdi case 
        span = bdi_thresh, for JBOD case
        x_intercept = setpoint + span;

It does make sense to squeeze the bdi_dirty fluctuation range a bit by
doubling span and making the control line more sharp.

Thanks,
