writeback: fix calculations in trace_balance_dirty_pages() for cgwb
In the commit
dcc25ae76eb7 ("writeback: move global_dirty_limit into
wb_domain") of the cgroup writeback backpressure propagation patchset,
Tejun made some adaptations to trace_balance_dirty_pages() for cgroup
writeback. However, this adaptation was incomplete and Tejun missed
further adaptation in the subsequent patches.
In the cgroup writeback scenario, if sdtc in balance_dirty_pages() is
assigned to mdtc, then upon entering trace_balance_dirty_pages(),
__entry->limit should be assigned based on the dirty_limit of the
corresponding memcg's wb_domain, rather than global_wb_domain.
To address this issue and simplify the implementation, introduce a 'limit'
field in struct dirty_throttle_control to store the hard_limit value
computed in wb_position_ratio() by calling hard_dirty_limit(). This field
will then be used in trace_balance_dirty_pages() to assign the value to
__entry->limit.
