[PATCH v2] doc: add description to dirtytime_expire_seconds

[Yang Shi]

commit 1efff914afac8a965ad63817ecf8861a927c2ace ("fs: add
dirtytime_expire_seconds sysctl") introduced dirtytime_expire_seconds
knob, but there is not description about it in
Documentation/sysctl/vm.txt.

Add the description for it.

v1 --> v2: Rephrased the description per Nikolay Borisov's comment

I didn't dig into the old review discussion about why the description
was not added at the first place. I'm supposed every knob under /proc/sys
should have a brief description.

 ==============================================================
 
+dirtytime_expire_seconds
+
+When a lazytime inode is constantly having its pages dirtied, the inode with
+an updated timestamp will never get chance to be written out.  And, if the
+only thing that has happened on the file system is a dirtytime inode caused
+by an atime update, a worker will be scheduled to make sure that inode
+eventually gets pushed out to disk.  This tunable is used to define when dirty
+inode is old enough to be eligible for writeback by the kernel flusher threads.
+And, it is also used as the interval to wakeup dirtytime_writeback thread.
