writeback: make bdi_has_dirty_io() take multiple bdi_writeback's into account
bdi_has_dirty_io() used to only reflect whether the root wb (bdi_writeback) has dirty inodes. For cgroup writeback support, it needs to take all active wb's into account. If any wb on the bdi has dirty inodes, bdi_has_dirty_io() should return true. To achieve that, as inode_wb_list_{move|del}_locked() now keep track of the dirty state transition of each wb, the number of dirty wbs can be counted in the bdi; however, bdi is already aggregating wb->avg_write_bandwidth which can easily be guaranteed to be > 0 when there are any dirty inodes by ensuring wb->avg_write_bandwidth can't dip below 1. bdi_has_dirty_io() can simply test whether bdi->tot_write_bandwidth is zero or not. While this bumps the value of wb->avg_write_bandwidth to one when it used to be zero, this shouldn't cause any meaningful behavior difference. bdi_has_dirty_io() is made an inline function which tests whether ->tot_write_bandwidth is non-zero. Also, WARN_ON_ONCE()'s on its value are added to inode_wb_list_{move|del}_locked().
