Jan Kara pointed out that if there is an inode which is constantly getting dirtied with I_DIRTY_PAGES, an inode with an updated timestamp will never be written since inode->dirtied_when is constantly getting updated. We fix this by adding an extra field to the inode, dirtied_time_when, so inodes with a stale dirtytime can get detected and handled. In addition, if we have a dirtytime inode caused by an atime update, and there is no write activity on the file system, we need to have a secondary system to make sure these inodes get written out. We do this by setting up a second delayed work structure which wakes up the CPU much more rarely compared to writeback_expire_centisecs.
