Subject: [PATCH 07/17] writeback: Factor writeback_get_batch() out of write_cache_pages()

From: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@...radead.org>

This simple helper will be the basis of the writeback iterator.
To make this work, we need to remember the current index
and end positions in writeback_control.

Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@...radead.org>
[hch: heavily rebased, add helpers to get the tag and end index,
      don't keep the end index in struct writeback_control]
