Subject: f2fs: avoid IO split due to mixed WB_SYNC_ALL and WB_SYNC_NONE
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=687de7f1010cb819d04b768556960d3689abe02b;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

f2fs: avoid IO split due to mixed WB_SYNC_ALL and WB_SYNC_NONE

If two threads try to flush dirty pages in different inodes respectively,
f2fs_write_data_pages() will produce WRITE and WRITE_SYNC one at a time,
resulting in a lot of 4KB seperated IOs.

So, this patch gives higher priority to WB_SYNC_ALL IOs and gathers write
IOs with a big WRITE_SYNC'ed bio.
