From: Huaisheng Ye <yehs1@xxxxxxxxxx> Patch 1 and 2 are used for cleaning the code, and they have got Acked-by from Mikulas. Patch 3 is used for performance optimization when writeback_all, which could save more than half of time. Of course, if the blocks in writecache are more uncontinuous and disordered, the more performance improvement would be gained from this patch.
