I think determine_dirtyable_memory() is a rather costly function since it
need many atomic reads for gathering zone/global page state. But when we
use vm_dirty_bytes && dirty_background_bytes, we don't need that costly
calculation.
This patch eliminates such unnecessary overhead.
NOTE : newly added if condition might add overhead in normal path.
But it should be _really_ small because anyway we need the
access both vm_dirty_bytes and dirty_background_bytes so it is
likely to hit the cache.
