Date: November 2022
Contact: Stefan Roesch <shr@devkernel.io>
Description:
Allows limiting a particular device to use not more than the
given value of the write-back cache. The value is given as part
of 1 million. This is useful in situations where we want to avoid
one device taking all or most of the write-back cache. For example
in case of an NFS mount that is prone to get stuck, or a FUSE mount
which cannot be trusted to play fair.
