MDTC_INIT() is used to initialize dirty_throttle_control for memcg
domains. It used DTC_INIT_COMMON() to initialized mdtc->wb and
->wb_completions which is incorrect as DTC_INIT_COMMON() sets the
latter to wb->completions instead of wb->memcg_completions. This can
lead to wildly incorrect results when calculating the proportion of
dirty memory the memcg domain should get.
Remove DTC_INIT_COMMON() and update MDTC_INIT() to initialize
mdtc->wb_completions to wb->memcg_completions.
