OK, done.

It's duplicated tests as in writeback_sb_inodes(), which have the comments

                /*
                 * bail out to wb_writeback() often enough to check
                 * background threshold and other termination conditions.
                 */        

I'll add a simple comment here:

/* refer to the same tests at the end of writeback_sb_inodes */

Fair enough.

I comment it with

        Hopefully 1024 is large enough for efficient IO.

Subject: writeback: make writeback_control.nr_to_write straight 
Date: Wed May 04 19:54:37 CST 2011

Pass struct wb_writeback_work all the way down to writeback_sb_inodes(),
and initialize the struct writeback_control there.

struct writeback_control is basically designed to control writeback of a
single file, but we keep abuse it for writing multiple files in
writeback_sb_inodes() and its callers.

It immediately clean things up, e.g. suddenly wbc.nr_to_write vs
work->nr_pages starts to make sense, and instead of saving and restoring
pages_skipped in writeback_sb_inodes it can always start with a clean
zero value.

It also makes a neat IO pattern change: large dirty files are now
written in the full 4MB writeback chunk size, rather than whatever
remained quota in wbc->nr_to_write.

change set:
- move writeback_control from wb_writeback() down to writeback_sb_inodes()
- change return value of writeback_sb_inodes()/__writeback_inodes_wb()
  to the number of pages and/or inodes written
- move writeback_control.older_than_this to struct wb_writeback_work
- remove writeback_control.inodes_written
- remove wbc_writeback_* trace events for now
