Jan Kara 3b9bcb5e05 writeback: Drop I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE
commit 5fcd57505c002efc5823a7355e21f48dd02d5a51 upstream.

The only use of I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE is to detect in
__writeback_single_inode() that inode got there because flush worker
decided it's time to writeback the dirty inode time stamps (either
because we are syncing or because of age). However we can detect this
directly in __writeback_single_inode() and there's no need for the
strange propagation with I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE flag.

Hui Su e7cfa743c7 trace: fix potenial dangerous pointer
commit fdeb17c70c9ecae655378761accf5a26a55a33cf upstream.

The bdi_dev_name() returns a char [64], and
the __entry->name is a char [32].

It maybe dangerous to TP_printk("%s", __entry->name)
after the strncpy().

Jan Kara 50091a6dfb writeback: Fix sync livelock due to b_dirty_time processing
commit f9cae926f35e8230330f28c7b743ad088611a8de upstream.

When we are processing writeback for sync(2), move_expired_inodes()
didn't set any inode expiry value (older_than_this). This can result in
writeback never completing if there's steady stream of inodes added to
b_dirty_time list as writeback rechecks dirty lists after each writeback
round whether there's more work to be done. Fix the problem by using
sync(2) start time is inode expiry value when processing b_dirty_time
list similarly as for ordinarily dirtied inodes. This requires some
refactoring of older_than_this handling which simplifies the code
noticeably as a bonus.
