md/raid5-cache: bump flush stripe batch size
Bump the flush stripe batch size to 2048. For my 12 disks raid array, the stripes takes: 12 * 4k * 2048 = 96MB This is still quite small. A hardware raid card generally has 1GB size, which we suggest the raid5-cache has similar cache size. The advantage of a big batch size is we can dispatch a lot of IO in the same time, then we can do some scheduling to make better IO pattern. Last patch prioritizes stripes, so we don't worry about a big flush stripe batch will starve normal stripes. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fb.com>
