574 * charging only by first-use can too readily lead to grossly incorrect
575 * behaviors (single foreign page can lead to gigabytes of writeback to be
576 * incorrectly attributed).
578 * To resolve this issue, cgroup writeback detects the majority dirtier of
579 * an inode and transfers the ownership to it. To avoid unnnecessary
580 * oscillation, the detection mechanism keeps track of history and gives
581 * out the switch verdict only if the foreign usage pattern is stable over

585 * using Boyer-Moore majority vote algorithm. In addition to the byte
586 * count from the majority voting, it also counts the bytes written for the
587 * current wb and the last round's winner wb (max of last round's current
588 * wb, the winner from two rounds ago, and the last round's majority
589 * candidate). Keeping track of the historical winner helps the algorithm
590 * to semi-reliably detect the most active writer even when it's not the
593 * Once the winner of the round is determined, whether the winner is
594 * foreign or not and how much IO time the round consumed is recorded in
