I'm not familiar enough with the cgwb code to say for sure (and I'd
probably wait for more high level feedback before worrying too much
about this), but do we need the ifdef here just to iterate ->wb_list?
>From looking at the code, it appears bdi->wb ends up on the list while
the bdi is registered for both cases, so that distinction seems
unnecessary. WRT to wb release protection, I wonder if this could use a
combination of rcu_read_lock()/list_for_each_safe() and wb_tryget() on
each wb before collecting its stats..? See how bdi_split_work_to_wbs()
works, for example.

Also I see a patch conflict/compile error on patch 2 due to
__wb_calc_thresh() only taking one parameter in my tree. What's the
baseline commit for this series?
