writeback: clean up wb_dirty_limit()
The function name wb_dirty_limit(), its argument @dirty and the local variable @wb_dirty are mortally confusing given that the function calculates per-wb threshold value not dirty pages, especially given that @dirty and @wb_dirty are used elsewhere for dirty pages. Let's rename the function to wb_calc_thresh() and wb_dirty to wb_thresh.
