First remove items from work_list as soon as we start working on them. This
means we don't have to track any pending or visited state and can get
rid of all the RCU magic freeing the work items - we can simply free
them once the operation has finished. Second use a real completion for
tracking synchronous requests - if the caller sets the completion pointer
we complete it, otherwise use it as a boolean indicator that we can free
the work item directly. Third unify struct wb_writeback_args and struct
bdi_work into a single data structure, wb_writeback_work. Previous we
set all parameters into a struct wb_writeback_args, copied it into
struct bdi_work, copied it again on the stack to use it there. Instead
of just allocate one structure dynamically or on the stack and use it
all the way through the stack.

83ba7b07 cleans up the writeback.
So we don't use wb any more in get_next_work_item.
Let's remove unnecessary argument.
