Inode reclaim will still throttle direct reclaim on the per-ag reclaim locks. This is no longer necessary as reclaim can run non-blocking now. Hence we can remove these locks so that we don't arbitrarily block reclaimers just because there are more direct reclaimers than there are AGs. This can result in multiple reclaimers working on the same range of an AG, but this doesn't cause any apparent issues. Optimising the spread of concurrent reclaimers for best efficiency can be done in a future patchset. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Darrick J.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
