2.6.18 seems to get caught in an infinite loop when
cancel_rearming_delayed_workqueue is called more than once, so this switches
to cancel_delayed_work, which is arguably more correct.
Also, balance_dirty_pages can run into problems with 2.6.18 based kernels
because it doesn't have the per-bdi dirty limits. This avoids calling
balance_dirty_pages on the btree inode unless there is actually something
to balance, which is a good optimization in general.
Finally there's a compile fix for ordered-data.h

Using ilookup5 during data=ordered writeback could deadlock on I_LOCK. This
saves a pointer to the inode instead.

This forces file data extents down the disk along with the metadata that
references them. The current implementation is fairly simple, and just
writes out all of the dirty pages in an inode before the commit.
