Subject: memcg: flush stats non-atomically in mem_cgroup_wb_stats()
Date: Fri, 21 Apr 2023 17:40:17 +0000
The previous patch moved the wb_over_bg_thresh()->mem_cgroup_wb_stats()
code path in wb_writeback() outside the lock section. We no longer need
to flush the stats atomically. Flush the stats non-atomically.
