The only use of I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE is to detect in __writeback_single_inode() that inode got there because flush worker decided it's time to writeback the dirty inode time stamps (either because we are syncing or because of age). However we can detect this directly in __writeback_single_inode() and there's no need for the strange propagation with I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE flag.
