Subject: [PATCH v2 1/8] writeback: factor out wb_bg_dirty_limits to remove repeated code

Similar to wb_dirty_limits which calculates dirty and thresh of wb,
wb_bg_dirty_limits calculates background dirty and background thresh of
wb. With wb_bg_dirty_limits, we could remove repeated code in
wb_over_bg_thresh.
