[PATCH RESEND 1/2] writeback: Let trace_balance_dirty_pages() take struct dtc as parameter

[Tang Yizhou]

From: Tang Yizhou <yizhou.tang@xxxxxxxxxx>

Currently, trace_balance_dirty_pages() already has 12 parameters. In the
next patch, I initially attempted to introduce an additional parameter.
However, in include/linux/trace_events.h, bpf_trace_run12() only supports
up to 12 parameters and bpf_trace_run13() does not exist.

To reduce the number of parameters in trace_balance_dirty_pages(), we can
make it accept a pointer to struct dirty_throttle_control as a parameter.
To achieve this, we need to move the definition of struct
dirty_throttle_control from mm/page-writeback.c to
include/linux/writeback.h.

By the way, rename bdi_setpoint and bdi_dirty in the tracepoint to
wb_setpoint and wb_dirty, respectively. These changes were omitted by
Tejun in the cgroup writeback patchset.
