From: Minchan Kim <minchan@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: bdi: introduce BDI_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO

As discussed at
lkml.kernel.org/r/<20170728165604.10455-1-ross.zwisler@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>,
someday we will remove rw_page().  If so, we need something to detect such
super-fast storage on which synchronous IO operations like the current
rw_page are always a win.

Introduces BDI_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO to indicate such devices.  With it, we
could use various optimization techniques.
