writeback: implement memcg wb_domain



Dirtyable memory is distributed to a wb (bdi_writeback) according to
the relative bandwidth the wb is writing out in the whole system.
This distribution is global - each wb is measured against all other
wb's and gets the proportinately sized portion of the memory in the
whole system.

For cgroup writeback, the amount of dirtyable memory is scoped by
memcg and thus each wb would need to be measured and controlled in its
memcg.  IOW, a wb will belong to two writeback domains - the global
and memcg domains.

The previous patches laid the groundwork to support the two wb_domains
and this patch implements memcg wb_domain.  memcg->cgwb_domain is
initialized on css online and destroyed on css release,
wb->memcg_completions is added, and __wb_writeout_inc() is updated to
increment completions against both global and memcg wb_domains.

The following patches will update balance_dirty_pages() and its
subroutines to actually consider memcg wb_domain for throttling.
