Currently, a wb's (bdi_writeback) congestion state is carried in its
->state field; however, cgroup writeback support will require multiple
wb's sharing the same congestion state. This patch separates out
congestion state into its own struct - struct bdi_writeback_congested.
A new field wb field, wb_congested, points to its associated congested
struct. The default wb, bdi->wb, always points to bdi->wb_congested.
While this patch adds a layer of indirection, it doesn't introduce any
behavior changes.

With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related
declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup;
unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h
makes cyclic include dependency quite likely.
This patch separates out backing-dev-defs.h which only has the
essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it. c files
which need access to more backing-dev details now include
backing-dev.h directly. This takes backing-dev.h off the common
include dependency chain making it a lot easier to use it across block
and cgroup.
v2: fs/fat build failure fixed.
