Subject: [PATCH v3 2/3] btrfs: minor improvement on super block writeback
Date: Sat, 10 Jan 2026 14:26:20 +1030	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9faf8ee5927455018e55bdca32c5299ba3b5e1ec.1768017091.git.wqu@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1768017091.git.wqu@suse.com>

This includes:

- Move the write error handling out of the folio iteration
  This is not a big deal, since our super block is never going to be
  larger than a single page.

- Add a comment on why we want to lock the folio for writeback
  And the fact that we use folio locked state to track if the write has
  finished.
