writeback: separate out domain_dirty_limits()
global_dirty_limits() calculates thresh and bg_thresh (confusingly
called *pdirty and *pbackground in the function) assuming
global_wb_domain; however, cgroup writeback support requires
considering per-memcg wb_domain too.
This patch separates out domain_dirty_limits() which takes
dirty_throttle_control out of global_dirty_limits(). As thresh and
bg_thresh calculation needs the amount of dirtyable memory in the
domain, dirty_throttle_control->avail is added. The new function
calculates the two thresholds and store them directly in the
dirty_throttle_control.
Also, as memcg domains can't follow vm_dirty_bytes and
dirty_background_bytes settings directly. If those are set and
domain_dirty_limits() is invoked for a !global domain, the settings
are translated to ratios by scaling them against globally available
memory. dirty_throttle_control->gdtc is added to enable this when
CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK.
global_dirty_limits() is now a thin wrapper around
domain_dirty_limits() and balance_dirty_pages() is updated to use the
new function too.
This patch doesn't introduce any behavioral changes.
