mm: bdi: move statistics to debugfs

Move BDI statistics to debugfs:

   /sys/kernel/debug/bdi/<bdi>/stats

Use postcore_initcall() to initialize the sysfs class and debugfs,
because debugfs is initialized in core_initcall().

Update descriptions in ABI documentation.

 Description:
 
-Provide a place in sysfs for the backing_dev_info object.
-This allows us to see and set the various BDI specific variables.

 min_ratio (read-write)

-       of all min_ratio values exceed 100, then EINVAL is returned.
-       If min_ratio would become larger than the current max_ratio,
-       then also EINVAL is returned.  The default is zero
+       Under normal circumstances each device is given a part of the
+       total write-back cache that relates to its current average
+       writeout speed in relation to the other devices.
+
+       The 'min_ratio' parameter allows assigning a minimum
+       percentage of the write-back cache to a particular device.
+       For example, this is useful for providing a minimum QoS.
 
 max_ratio (read-write)
 
-       Maximal percentage of global dirty threshold allocated to this
-       bdi.  If max_ratio would become smaller than the current
-       min_ratio, then EINVAL is returned.  The default is 100
+       Allows limiting a particular device to use not more than the
+       given percentage of the write-back cache.  This is useful in
+       situations where we want to avoid one device taking all or
+       most of the write-back cache.  For example in case of an NFS
+       mount that is prone to get stuck, or a FUSE mount which cannot
+       be trusted to play fair.
