writeback: add more tracepoints
Add tracepoints for page dirtying, writeback_single_inode start, inode dirtying and writeback. For the latter two inode events, a pair of events are defined to denote start and end of the operations (the starting one has _start suffix and the one w/o suffix happens after the operation is complete). These inode ops are FS specific and can be non-trivial and having enclosing tracepoints is useful for external tracers. This is part of tracepoint additions to improve visiblity into dirtying / writeback operations for io tracer and userland. v2: writeback_dirty_inode[_start] TPs may be called for files on pseudo FSes w/ unregistered bdi. Check whether bdi->dev is %NULL before dereferencing. v3: buffer dirtying moved to a block TP.
