writeback: clear old wb dirty state after inode switches
Switching an inode to another wb updates the target wb's dirty-I/O state,
but no longer checks whether the source wb's dirty-I/O lists became empty.
The check was lost when inode_io_list_del_locked(inode, old_wb) was
removed to support tracking clean attached inodes.
If the last dirty inode is moved, WB_has_dirty_io remains set on the old
wb and its bandwidth contribution remains in bdi->tot_write_bandwidth.
This can keep an empty wb scheduled for periodic writeback and overstate
the total bandwidth used to distribute writeback work.
Call wb_io_lists_depopulated() on the old wb after the batch of inode
switches, while its list_lock is still held. This clears the flag and
removes the bandwidth contribution if its dirty-I/O lists are empty.
