I'll use the above one, which is more simple and elegant: 

        f(freerun)  = 2.0
        f(setpoint) = 1.0
        f(limit)    = 0

Code is

        unsigned long freerun = (thresh + bg_thresh) / 2;

        setpoint = (limit + freerun) / 2;
        pos_ratio = abs(dirty - setpoint);
        pos_ratio <<= BANDWIDTH_CALC_SHIFT;
        do_div(pos_ratio, limit - setpoint + 1);
        x = pos_ratio;
        pos_ratio = pos_ratio * x >> BANDWIDTH_CALC_SHIFT;
        pos_ratio = pos_ratio * x >> BANDWIDTH_CALC_SHIFT;
        if (dirty > setpoint)
                pos_ratio = -pos_ratio;
        pos_ratio += 1 << BANDWIDTH_CALC_SHIFT;

Thanks,
Fengguang
