Hello,
This patchset implements cgroup writeback support for ext4, which is
enabled for writeback and ordered data modes. This patchset contains
the following two patches.
0001-ext4-replace-ext4_io_submit-io_op-with-io_wbc.patch
0002-ext4-implement-cgroup-writeback-support.patch
0001 is a prep patch which replaces io_submit->io_op w/ ->io_wbc.
0002 implements cgroup writeback support.
This patchset is on top of
[1] block/for-4.2/writeback
+[2] [PATCHSET] cgroup, writeback: misc updates for cgroup writeback support
and available on in the following git branch.
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup.git review-cgroup-writeback-ext4
diffstat follows. Thanks.

For ordered and writeback data modes, all data IOs go through
ext4_io_submit. This patch adds cgroup writeback support by invoking
wbc_init_bio() from io_submit_init_bio() and wbc_account_io() in
io_submit_add_bh(). Journal data which is written by jbd2 worker is
left alone by this patch and will always be written out from the root
cgroup.
ext4_fill_super() is updated to set MS_CGROUPWB when data mode is
either ordered or writeback. In journaled data mode, most IOs become
synchronous through the journal and enabling cgroup writeback support
doesn't make much sense or difference. Journaled data mode is left
alone.
Lightly tested with sequential data write workload. Behaves as
expected.

ext4_io_submit_init() takes the pointer to writeback_control to test
its sync_mode and determine between WRITE and WRITE_SYNC and records
the result in ->io_op. This patch makes it record the pointer
directly and moves the test to ext4_io_submit().
This doesn't cause any noticeable differences now but having
writeback_control available throughout IO submission path will be
depended upon by the planned cgroup writeback support.
