- * This function is used when the first inode for this wb is marked dirty. It
- * wakes-up the corresponding bdi thread which should then take care of the
- * periodic background write-out of dirty inodes. Since the write-out would
- * starts only 'dirty_writeback_interval' centisecs from now anyway, we just
- * set up a timer which wakes the bdi thread up later.
- *
- * Note, we wouldn't bother setting up the timer, but this function is on the
- * fast-path (used by '__mark_inode_dirty()'), so we save few context switches
- * by delaying the wake-up.
- *
- * We have to be careful not to postpone flush work if it is scheduled for
- * earlier. Thus we use queue_delayed_work().
