Writeback implements its own worker pool - each bdi can be associated with a worker thread which is created and destroyed dynamically. The worker thread for the default bdi is always present and serves as the "forker" thread which forks off worker threads for other bdis. there's no reason for writeback to implement its own worker pool when using unbound workqueue instead is much simpler and more efficient. This patch replaces custom worker pool implementation in writeback with an unbound workqueue. The conversion isn't too complicated but the followings are worth mentioning. * bdi_writeback->last_active, task and wakeup_timer are removed. delayed_work ->dwork is added instead. Explicit timer handling is no longer necessary. Everything works by either queueing / modding / flushing / canceling the delayed_work item. * bdi_writeback_thread() becomes bdi_writeback_workfn() which runs off bdi_writeback->dwork. On each execution, it processes bdi->work_list and reschedules itself if there are more things to do. The function also handles low-mem condition, which used to be handled by the forker thread. If the function is running off a rescuer thread, it only writes out limited number of pages so that the rescuer can serve other bdis too. This preserves the flusher creation failure behavior of the forker thread. * INIT_LIST_HEAD(&bdi->bdi_list) is used to tell bdi_writeback_workfn() about on-going bdi unregistration so that it always drains work_list even if it's running off the rescuer. Note that the original code was broken in this regard. Under memory pressure, a bdi could finish unregistration with non-empty work_list. * The default bdi is no longer special. It now is treated the same as any other bdi and bdi_cap_flush_forker() is removed. * BDI_pending is no longer used. Removed. * Some tracepoints become non-applicable. The following TPs are removed - writeback_nothread, writeback_wake_thread, writeback_wake_forker_thread, writeback_thread_start, writeback_thread_stop. Everything, including devices coming and going away and rescuer operation under simulated memory pressure, seems to work fine in my test setup.
