[PATCH 02/13] writeback: consolidate variable names in balance_dirty_pages()

[Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@xxxxxxxxx>]

Lots of lenthy tests.. Let's compact the names

	*_dirty = NR_FILE_DIRTY + NR_WRITEBACK + NR_UNSTABLE_NFS

balance_dirty_pages() only cares about the above dirty sum except
in one place -- on starting background writeback.
