Allow a write of '-1' to reset the default latency target for a given device. This removes knowledge of the different default settings for rotational vs non-rotational from user space. Signed-off-by:

Again a leftover from when the throttling code was generic. Now that we just have the block user, get rid of the stat ops and indirections. Signed-off-by:

The bdi was a leftover from when the code was block layer agnostic. Now that we just support a block layer user, store the queue directly. Signed-off-by:

We can hook this up to the block layer, to help throttle buffered writes. wbt registers a few trace points that can be used to track what is happening in the system: wbt_lat: 259:0: latency 2446318 wbt_stat: 259:0: rmean=2446318, rmin=2446318, rmax=2446318, rsamples=1, wmean=518866, wmin=15522, wmax=5330353, wsamples=57 wbt_step: 259:0: step down: step=1, window=72727272, background=8, normal=16, max=32 This shows a sync issue event (wbt_lat) that exceeded it's time. wbt_stat dumps the current read/write stats for that window, and wbt_step shows a step down event where we now scale back writes. Each trace includes the device, 259:0 in this case. Signed-off-by:
