4.11-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk@xxxxxxxxxx> commit c6f82fe90d7458e5fa190a6820bfc24f96b0de4e upstream. This reverts commit 3436c4bdb30de421d46f58c9174669fbcfd40ce0. This makes a leak to register dirty segments. I reproduced the issue by modified postmark which injects a lot of file create/delete/update and finally triggers huge number of SSR allocations.
