commit e0646b7590084a5bf3b056d3ad871d9379d2c25a upstream.
Since now bdi->min_ratio is part per million, fix the wrong arithmetic. Otherwise it will fail with -EINVAL when setting a reasonable min_ratio, as it tries to set min_ratio to (min_ratio * BDI_RATIO_SCALE) in percentage unit, which exceeds 100% anyway.
# cat /sys/class/bdi/253:0/min_ratio 0 # cat /sys/class/bdi/253:0/max_ratio 100 # echo 1 > /sys/class/bdi/253:0/min_ratio -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
