WB_SYNC_NONE writeback is done in rounds of 1024 pages so that we don't write out some huge inode for too long while starving writeout of other inodes. To avoid livelocks, we record time we started writeback in wbc->wb_start and do not write out inodes which were dirtied after this time. But currently, writeback_inodes_wb() resets wb_start each time it is called thus effectively invalidating this logic and making any WB_SYNC_NONE writeback prone to livelocks. This patch makes sure wb_start is set only once when we start writeback.
