4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ethan Lien <ethanlien@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit d814a49198eafa6163698bdd93961302f3a877a4 upstream. We use customized, nodesize batch value to update dirty_metadata_bytes. We should also use batch version of compare function or we will easily goto fast path and get false result from percpu_counter_compare().
