In order to respect mw_cuinits, pblk's write buffer maintains a
backpointer to protect data not yet persisted; when writing to the write
buffer, this backpointer defines a threshold that pblk's rate-limiter
enforces.
On small PU configurations, the following scenarios might take place: (i)
the threshold is larger than the write buffer and (ii) the threshold is
smaller than the write buffer, but larger than the maximun allowed
split bio - 256KB at this moment (Note that writes are not always
split - we only do this when we the size of the buffer is smaller
than the buffer). In both cases, pblk's rate-limiter prevents the I/O to
be written to the buffer, thus stalling.
This patch fixes the original backpointer implementation by considering
the threshold both on buffer creation and on the rate-limiters path,
when bio_split is triggered (case (ii) above).

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.
