Cover letter [PATCH 0/3] writeback: more clean-ups and fixes

And on top of those patches I've implemented the following 3 patches which do further clean-up and fix one of the races I see. There is more work, but I am sending this early to get an early feedback.

Note, I only gave few test to my patches - booted Fedora, made sure bdi writeback threads are created/deleted/doing writeback, hotplugged external USB drive, saw writeback thread created, unplugged and saw it be removed. Did some work while running a kernel with these patches.

The patches are against your for-2.6.36 branch.

My long-term plan is to get rid of unneeded wake-ups, but I'm still just reading your code and learning, and clean-up / fix things I spot.
