Indeed, Jan's patch series[1] is about to land in the ext4 tree, and that's going to remove ext4_writepages. The main reason why this hadn't landed yet was due to some conflicts with some other folio changes, so you should be able to drop this patch when you rebase this patch series. - Ted [1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230228051319.4085470-1-tytso@xxxxxxx/
