Against 2.6.21-rc5-mm4 without: per-backing_dev-dirty-and-writeback-page-accounting.patch This series implements BDI independent dirty limits and congestion control. This should solve several problems we currently have in this area: - mutual interference starvation (for any number of BDIs), and - deadlocks with stacked BDIs (loop and FUSE). All the fancy new congestion code has been compile and boot tested, but not much more. I'm posting to get feedback on the ideas.
