Subject: [PATCH 4/6] EXT4: remove congestion_wait from ext4_bio_write_page, and simplify
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2021 10:13:04 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <163157838439.13293.3505783933403734827.stgit@noble.brown> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <163157808321.13293.486682642188075090.stgit@noble.brown>

congestion_wait() is indistinguishable from
schedule_timeout_uninterruptible().  It is best avoided and should be
deprecated.

It is not needed in ext4_bio_write_page().  There are two cases.
If there are no ->io_bio yet, then it is appropriate to use __GFP_NOFAIL
which does the waiting in a better place.  The code already uses this
flag on the second attempt.  This patch changes to it always use that
flag for this case.

If there *are* ->io_bio (in which case the allocation was non-blocking)
we submit the io and return the first case.  No waiting is needed in
this case.

So remove the congestion_wait() call, and simplify the code so that the
two cases are somewhat clearer.

Remove the "if (io->io_bio)" before calling ext4_io_submit() as that
test is performed internally by that function.
