Likley stupid question on "throttle_vm_writeout"

[Martin Knoblauch]

Hi, (please CC me on replies)

 I have a likely stupid question on the function "throttle_vm_writeout". Looking at the code I find:

                if (global_page_state(NR_UNSTABLE_NFS) +
                        global_page_state(NR_WRITEBACK) <= dirty_thresh)
                                break;
                congestion_wait(WRITE, HZ/10);

Shouldn't the NR_FILE_DIRTY pages be considered as well?

Cheers

Martin
