Subject: writeback: account NR_WRITTEN at IO completion time
X-Git-Tag: v3.1-rc1~241^2~68
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=99b12e3d882bc7ebdfe0de381dff3b16d21c38f7;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-stable.git

writeback: account NR_WRITTEN at IO completion time

NR_WRITTEN is now accounted at block IO enqueue time, which is not very
accurate as to common understanding.  This moves NR_WRITTEN accounting to
the IO completion time and makes it more consistent with BDI_WRITTEN,
which is used for bandwidth estimation.
