scheduler: compute time-average nr_running per run-queue

Compute the time-average number of running tasks per run-queue for a
trailing window of a fixed time period. The detla add/sub to the
average value is weighted by the amount of time per nr_running value
relative to the total measurement period.

scheduler: Re-compute time-average nr_running on read

Re-compute time-average nr_running when it is read. This would
prevent reading stalled average value if there were no run-queue
changes for a long time. New average value is returned to the reader,
but not stored to avoid concurrent writes. Light-weight sequential
counter synchronization is used to assure data consistency for
re-computing average.

writeback: fix occasional slow sync(1)

In case when system contains no dirty pages, wakeup_flusher_threads() will
submit WB_SYNC_NONE writeback for 0 pages so wb_writeback() exits
immediately without doing anything, even though there are dirty inodes in
the system.  Thus sync(1) will write all the dirty inodes from a
WB_SYNC_ALL writeback pass which is slow.

Fix the problem by using get_nr_dirty_pages() in wakeup_flusher_threads()
instead of calculating number of dirty pages manually.  That function also
takes number of dirty inodes into account.
