[PATCH 02/12] writeback: Factor writeback_get_batch() out of write_cache_pages()

From: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)
Date: Mon Jun 26 2023 - 13:37:39 EST


This simple helper will be the basis of the writeback iterator.
To make this work, we need to remember the current index
and end positions in writeback_control.
