Simplify BDI integration
Update the code to use the bdi_setup_and_register() helper to simplify the bdi integration code. The updated code now just registers the bdi during mount and destroys it during unmount. The only complication is that for 2.6.32 - 2.6.33 kernels the helper wasn't available so in these cases the zfs code must provide it. Luckily the bdi_setup_and_register() function is trivial. Signed-off-by: Brian Behlendorf <[email protected]> Closes #367
