From 3bbed8c7747739cda48f592f165e8839da076a3a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Issuing metdata or otherwise shared IOs from !root cgroup can lead to
priority inversion.  This patch ensures that those IOs are always
issued from the root cgroup.

This patch updates btrfs_update_iflags() to not set S_CGROUPWB on
btree_inodes.  This isn't strictly necessary as those inodes don't
call the function during init; however, this serves as documentation
and prevents possible future mistakes.  If this isn't desirable,
please feel free to drop the section.

v2: Fixed missing @bh in submit_bh_blkcg_css() call.

Looks good.

The 'btree_inode' is only one, with inode number 1, and represents all
the metadata, so I don't understand what it means in plural.

The comment is useful, but the condition will be always true, so I don't
see the point.

	/*
	 * The btree_inode will be always in the root cgroup. The cgroup
	 * writeback can be enabled on regular inodes selectively.
	 */
	new_fl |= S_CGROUPWB;

is IMHO enough, based on my reading of patch 2/5 changelog.

Will update accordingly.

Thanks.
