global_dirty_limits() calculates thresh and bg_thresh (confusingly called *pdirty and *pbackground in the function) assuming global_wb_domain; however, cgroup writeback support requires considering per-memcg wb_domain too. This patch separates out domain_dirty_limits() which takes dirty_throttle_control out of global_dirty_limits(). As thresh and bg_thresh calculation needs the amount of dirtyable memory in the domain, dirty_throttle_control->avail is added. The new function calculates the two thresholds and store them directly in the dirty_throttle_control. Also, as memcg domains can't follow vm_dirty_bytes and dirty_background_bytes settings directly. If those are set and domain_dirty_limits() is invoked for a !global domain, the settings are translated to ratios by scaling them against globally available memory. dirty_throttle_control->gdtc is added to enable this when CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK. global_dirty_limits() is now a thin wrapper around domain_dirty_limits() and balance_dirty_pages() is updated to use the new function too. This patch doesn't introduce any behavioral changes.
