Hi, attached is a second version of my patch set to modify writeback code so that we avoid livelocks of sync(1) during usual load (such as copying trees etc.). I have just updated changelogs to reflect my discussions with Christoph since the last version. Christoph, are you OK with the patches after more explanation? Andrew, could you merge the patches if Christoph does not object? Thanks.
