[v8,2/2] wb: inode writeback list tracking tracepoints

Commit Message

Brian Foster June 22, 2016, 11:23 a.m. UTC

The per-sb inode writeback list tracks inodes currently under writeback
to facilitate efficient sync processing. In particular, it ensures that
sync only needs to walk through a list of inodes that were cleaned by
the sync.

Add a couple tracepoints to help identify when inodes are added/removed
to and from the writeback lists. Piggyback off of the writeback lazytime
tracepoint template as it already tracks the relevant inode information.
