Fix up the writeback plugging introduced in commit d353d7587d02
("writeback: plug writeback at a high level") that then caused problems
due to the unplug happening with a spinlock held.

* writeback-plugging:
  writeback: plug writeback in wb_writeback() and writeback_inodes_wb()
  Revert "writeback: plug writeback at a high level"

We had to revert the pluggin in writeback_sb_inodes() because the
wb->list_lock is held, but we could easily plug at a higher level before
taking that lock, and unplug after releasing it.  This does that.

Chris will run performance numbers, just to verify that this approach is
comparable to the alternative (we could just drop and re-take the lock
around the blk_finish_plug() rather than these two commits.

I'd have preferred waiting for actual performance numbers before picking
one approach over the other, but I don't want to release rc1 with the
known "sleeping function called from invalid context" issue, so I'll
pick this cleanup version for now.  But if the numbers show that we
really want to plug just at the writeback_sb_inodes() level, and we
should just play ugly games with the spinlock, we'll switch to that.

The seq_<foo> function return values were frequently misused.

See: commit 1f33c41c03da ("seq_file: Rename seq_overflow() to
     seq_has_overflowed() and make public")

All uses of these return values have been removed, so convert the
return types to void.

Miscellanea:

o Move seq_put_decimal_<type> and seq_escape prototypes closer the
  other seq_vprintf prototypes
o Reorder seq_putc and seq_puts to return early on overflow
o Add argument names to seq_vprintf and seq_printf
o Update the seq_escape kernel-doc
o Convert a couple of leading spaces to tabs in seq_escape

This reverts commit d353d7587d02116b9732d5c06615aed75a4d3a47.

Doing the block layer plug/unplug inside writeback_sb_inodes() is
broken, because that function is actually called with a spinlock held:
wb->list_lock, as pointed out by Chris Mason.

Chris suggested just dropping and re-taking the spinlock around the
blk_finish_plug() call (the plgging itself can happen under the
spinlock), and that would technically work, but is just disgusting.

We do something fairly similar - but not quite as disgusting because we
at least have a better reason for it - in writeback_single_inode(), so
it's not like the caller can depend on the lock being held over the
call, but in this case there just isn't any good reason for that
"release and re-take the lock" pattern.

[ In general, we should really strive to avoid the "release and retake"
  pattern for locks, because in the general case it can easily cause
  subtle bugs when the caller caches any state around the call that
  might be invalidated by dropping the lock even just temporarily. ]

But in this case, the plugging should be easy to just move up to the
callers before the spinlock is taken, which should even improve the
effectiveness of the plug.  So there is really no good reason to play
games with locking here.

I'll send off a test-patch so that Dave Chinner can verify that that
plug movement works.  In the meantime this just reverts the problematic
commit and adds a comment to the function so that we hopefully don't
make this mistake again.

Pull btrfs cleanups and fixes from Chris Mason:
 "These are small cleanups, and also some fixes for our async worker
  thread initialization.

  I was having some trouble testing these, but it ended up being a
  combination of changing around my test servers and a shiny new
  schedule while atomic from the new start/finish_plug in
  writeback_sb_inodes().

  That one only hits on btrfs raid5/6 or MD raid10, and if I wasn't
  changing a bunch of things in my test setup at once it would have been
  really clear.  Fix for writeback_sb_inodes() on the way as well"

Pull blk-cg updates from Jens Axboe:
 "A bit later in the cycle, but this has been in the block tree for a a
  while.  This is basically four patchsets from Tejun, that improve our
  buffered cgroup writeback.  It was dependent on the other cgroup
  changes, but they went in earlier in this cycle.

  Series 1 is set of 5 patches that has cgroup writeback updates:

   - bdi_writeback iteration fix which could lead to some wb's being
     skipped or repeated during e.g. sync under memory pressure.

   - Simplification of wb work wait mechanism.

   - Writeback tracepoints updated to report cgroup.

  Series 2 is is a set of updates for the CFQ cgroup writeback handling:

     cfq has always charged all async IOs to the root cgroup.  It didn't
     have much choice as writeback didn't know about cgroups and there
     was no way to tell who to blame for a given writeback IO.
     writeback finally grew support for cgroups and now tags each
     writeback IO with the appropriate cgroup to charge it against.

     This patchset updates cfq so that it follows the blkcg each bio is
     tagged with.  Async cfq_queues are now shared across cfq_group,
     which is per-cgroup, instead of per-request_queue cfq_data.  This
     makes all IOs follow the weight based IO resource distribution
     implemented by cfq.

     - Switched from GFP_ATOMIC to GFP_NOWAIT as suggested by Jeff.

     - Other misc review points addressed, acks added and rebased.

  Series 3 is the blkcg policy cleanup patches:

     This patchset contains assorted cleanups for blkcg_policy methods
     and blk[c]g_policy_data handling.

     - alloc/free added for blkg_policy_data.  exit dropped.

     - alloc/free added for blkcg_policy_data.

     - blk-throttle's async percpu allocation is replaced with direct
       allocation.

     - all methods now take blk[c]g_policy_data instead of blkcg_gq or
       blkcg.

  And finally, series 4 is a set of patches cleaning up the blkcg stats
  handling:

    blkcg's stats have always been somwhat of a mess.  This patchset
    tries to improve the situation a bit.

     - The following patches added to consolidate blkcg entry point and
       blkg creation.  This is in itself is an improvement and helps
       colllecting common stats on bio issue.

     - per-blkg stats now accounted on bio issue rather than request
       completion so that bio based and request based drivers can behave
       the same way.  The issue was spotted by Vivek.

     - cfq-iosched implements custom recursive stats and blk-throttle
       implements custom per-cpu stats.  This patchset make blkcg core
       support both by default.

     - cfq-iosched and blk-throttle keep track of the same stats
       multiple times.  Unify them"
