Tejun Heo ef3b101925 writeback: set worker desc to identify writeback workers in task dumps 
Writeback has been recently converted to use workqueue instead of its
private thread pool implementation.  One negative side effect of this
conversion is that there's no easy to tell which backing device a
writeback work item was working on at the time of task dump, be it
sysrq-t, BUG, WARN or whatever, which, according to our writeback
brethren, is important in tracking down issues with a lot of mounted
file systems on a lot of different devices.

This patch restores that information using the new worker description
facility.  bdi_writeback_workfn() calls set_work_desc() to identify
which bdi it's working on.  The description is printed out together with
the worqueue name and worker function as in the following example dump.
