Frankly, I had to look into the code to understand what the patch is about.
Can we rephrase the changelog like:
Currently flexible proportion code is using fixed per-cpu counter batch size
since all the counters use only increment / decrement to track number of
pages which completed writeback. When we start tracking amount of done
writeback in different units, we need to update per-cpu counter batch size
accordingly. Make counter batch size configurable on a per-proportion
domain basis to allow for this.
