It works for : some time until eventually min_ratio can no longer be set, even when the : active set of bdi's seen in /sys/class/bdi/*/min_ratio doesn't add up to : anywhere near 100. : : This then leads to an unrelated starvation problem caused by write-heavy : fuse mounts being used atop the usb disks, a problem the min_ratio setting : at the underlying devices bdi effectively prevents. Fix this leakage by resetting the bdi min_ratio when unregistering the BDI.
