writeback: Do not sort b_io list only because of block device inode
It is very likely that block device inode will be part of BDI dirty list as well. However it doesn't make sence to sort inodes on the b_io list just because of this inode (as it contains buffers all over the device anyway). So save some CPU cycles which is valuable since we hold relatively contented wb->list_lock. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
