Also I was wondering about another thing: How does this play with Josef's
series for metadata writeback (Metadata specific accouting and dirty
writeout)? Would the per-inode selection of cgroup writeback still be
needed when Josef's series is applied since metadata writeback then won't
be associated with any particular mapping anymore?
