writeback: remove wb_list
The wb_list member of struct backing_device_info always has exactly one element. Just use the direct bdi->wb pointer instead and simplify some code. Also remove bdi_task_init which is now trivial to prepare for the next patch. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>
