Hey Jan,

This series implements your suggestions for the RFC PATCH v3 set [1].

That addressed the issue you confirmed with block_page_mkwrite() [2].
There's no "JBD2: Spotted dirty metadata buffer" message in over 72h
runs across 3 VMs (it used to happen within a few hours.) *Thanks!*

I added Reviewed-by: tags for the patches/changes you mentioned.
The only changes from v3 are patch 3 which is new, and contains
the 2 fixes to ext4_page_mkwrite(); and patch 4 changed 'struct
writeback_control.nr_to_write' from ~0ULL to LONG_MAX, since it
is signed long (~0ULL overflows to -1; kudos, kernel test robot!)

It looks almost good on fstests: zero regressions on data=ordered,
and two apparently flaky tests data=journal (generic/347 _passed_
1/6 times with the patch, and generic/547 failed 1/6 times.)

I'll have more fstests runs on original/patched kernel to confirm
if they are flaky on both, or hit corner cases with patches only,
and will follow up with results. (and basic testing w/ ocfs2 too.)

Thanks again!
Mauricio
