writeback: fix time ordering of the per superblock dirty inode lists 5
When the writeback function is operating in writeback-for-flushing mode (as
opposed to writeback-for-integrity) and it encounters an I_LOCKed inode, it
will skip writing that inode. This is done for throughput and latency: move
on to another inode rather than blocking for this one.
Writeback skips this inode by moving it off s_io and onto s_dirty, so that
writeback can proceed with the other inodes on s_io.
However that inode movement can corrupt s_dirty's reverse-time-orderedness.
Fix that by using the new redirty_tail(), which will update the refiled
inode's dirtied_when field.
Note: the behaviour in here is a bit rude: if kupdate happens to come across a
locked inode then it will defer writeback of that inode for another 30
seconds. We'll address that in the next patch.
