So it turns out thіs version still applies fine and tests fine with
latest mainline.

I've put up a slight tweak here:

http://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc.git/shortlog/refs/heads/writeback-iter

this moves and documents the new fields in struct writeback_control
and drops the iomap patch for now as it has conflicts in the VFS tree
in this merge window.

Do you want me to send this version out, or do you want to take over or
is there a good reason not to progress with it?
