Ah sorry, based on the reply to Peter, there is no inherent dependency
between balanced_rate_n and balanced_rate_(n-1). bdi->dirty_ratelimit does
track balanced_rate in small steps, and hence will have some relationship
with its previous value other than equation (8).
So, although you may conduct equation (8) for balanced_rate, we'd
better not understand things in that way. Keep this fundamental
formula in mind and don't try to complicate it:
balanced_rate = task_ratelimit_200ms * write_bw / dirty_rate
