The per-sb inode writeback list tracks inodes currently under writeback to facilitate efficient sync processing. In particular, it ensures that sync only needs to walk through a list of inodes affected by the sync. Add a couple tracepoints to help identify when inodes are added/removed to and from the writeback lists. Piggyback off of the writeback lazytime tracepoint template as it already tracks the relevant inode information.
