Bug#859570: linux 4.10: Please enable CONFIG_BLK_WBT?

[Julian Andres Klode <jak@debian.org>]

Source: linux
Version: 4.10-1~exp1
Severity: wishlist

I think it makes sense to enable writeback throttling. I often see systems
basically locking up for minutes with heavy disk access, from the discussion
on that feature, it should fix that.
