Currently, a bdi (backing_dev_info) embeds single wb (bdi_writeback)
and the role of the separation is unclear. For cgroup support for
writeback IOs, a bdi will be updated to host multiple wb's where each
wb serves writeback IOs of a different cgroup on the bdi. To achieve
that, a wb should carry all states necessary for servicing writeback
IOs for a cgroup independently.
This patch moves bdi->wb_lock and ->worklist into wb.
* The lock protects bdi->worklist and bdi->wb.dwork scheduling. While
moving, rename it to wb->work_lock as wb->wb_lock is confusing.
Also, move wb->dwork downwards so that it's colocated with the new
->work_lock and ->work_list fields.
* bdi_writeback_workfn() -> wb_workfn()
bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed(bdi) -> wb_wakeup_delayed(wb)
bdi_wakeup_thread(bdi) -> wb_wakeup(wb)
bdi_queue_work(bdi, ...) -> wb_queue_work(wb, ...)
__bdi_start_writeback(bdi, ...) -> __wb_start_writeback(wb, ...)
get_next_work_item(bdi) -> get_next_work_item(wb)
* bdi_wb_shutdown() is renamed to wb_shutdown() and now takes @wb.
The function contained parts which belong to the containing bdi
rather than the wb itself - testing cap_writeback_dirty and
bdi_remove_from_list() invocation. Those are moved to
bdi_unregister().
* bdi_wb_{init|exit}() are renamed to wb_{init|exit}().
Initializations of the moved bdi->wb_lock and ->work_list are
relocated from bdi_init() to wb_init().
* As there's still only one bdi_writeback per backing_dev_info, all
uses of bdi->state are mechanically replaced with bdi->wb.state
introducing no behavior changes.
