Or are you just worrying about that flag in /proc/drbd ? We cache the result of our drbd_congested() hook whenever it is called by the VM subsystem or generic writeout path, or the like. We used to not reset that information actively. So it reset only when "someone" called into that hook again later. This means that flag may display stale information /proc/drbd. Fixed in 8.3.14 and above.
