We'd like to break out of the loop early in many situations, however the existing code has been setting mapping->writeback_index past the final page in the pagevec lookup for cyclic writeback. This is a problem if we don't process all pages up to the final page. Currently the code mostly keeps writeback_index reasonable and hacked around this by not breaking out of the loop or writing pages outside the range in these cases. Keep track of a real "done index" that enables us to terminate the loop in a much more flexible manner. Needed by the subsequent patch to preserve writepage errors, and then further patches to break out of the loop early for other reasons. However there are no functional changes with this patch alone.
