Jingbo Xu ea6fac901c writeback, cgroup: switch inodes with dirty timestamps to release dying cgwbs
[ Upstream commit 6654408a33 ]

The cgwb cleanup routine will try to release the dying cgwb by switching
the attached inodes.  It fetches the attached inodes from wb->b_attached
list, omitting the fact that inodes only with dirty timestamps reside in
wb->b_dirty_time list, which is the case when lazytime is enabled.  This
causes enormous zombie memory cgroup when lazytime is enabled, as inodes
with dirty timestamps can not be switched to a live cgwb for a long time.

It is reasonable not to switch cgwb for inodes with dirty data, as
otherwise it may break the bandwidth restrictions.  However since the
writeback of inode metadata is not accounted for, let's also switch
inodes with dirty timestamps to avoid zombie memory and block cgroups
when laztytime is enabled.

Fixes: c22d70a162 ("writeback, cgroup: release dying cgwbs by switching attached inodes")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
