[PATCH 5/6] Add stat for per cgroup writeout done by flusher.
From: Justin TerAvest
Date: Tue Mar 08 2011 - 16:24:26 EST
Tracking for buffered writes can detect when traffic comes from a
flusher thread, as opposed to directly from an application. This adds a
statistic to track I/O traffic from flusher threads.
This helps determine whether a flusher thread is being unfair to a
particular cgroup, and if cgroup-based isolation of writeback behavior
is useful.
