Contact:	Stefan Roesch <shr@devkernel.io>
Description:
	Allows limiting a particular device to use not more than the
	given value of the write-back cache.  The value is given as part
	of 1 million. This is useful in situations where we want to avoid
	one device taking all or most of the write-back cache.  For example
	in case of an NFS mount that is prone to get stuck, or a FUSE mount
	which cannot be trusted to play fair.
