writeback: fix dirtied pages accounting on redirty
commit 2f800fbd777b792de54187088df19a7df0251254 upstream.
De-account the accumulative dirty counters on page redirty.
Page redirties (very common in ext4) will introduce mismatch between
counters (a) and (b)
a) NR_DIRTIED, BDI_DIRTIED, tsk->nr_dirtied
b) NR_WRITTEN, BDI_WRITTEN
This will introduce systematic errors in balanced_rate and result in
dirty page position errors (ie. the dirty pages are no longer balanced
around the global/bdi setpoints).
