vfs, writeback: replace FS_CGROUP_WRITEBACK with SB_I_CGROUPWB

FS_CGROUP_WRITEBACK indicates whether a file_system_type supports cgroup writeback; however, different super_blocks of the same file_system_type may or may not support cgroup writeback depending on filesystem options. This patch replaces FS_CGROUP_WRITEBACK with a per-super_block flag. super_block->s_flags carries some internal flags in the high bits but it's exposd to userland through uapi header and running out of space anyway. This patch adds a new field super_block->s_iflags to carry kernel-internal flags. It is currently only used by the new SB_I_CGROUPWB flag whose concatenated and abbreviated name is for consistency with other super_block flags. ext2_fill_super() is updated to set SB_I_CGROUPWB. v2: Added super_block->s_iflags instead of stealing another high bit from sb->s_flags as suggested by Christoph and Jan.
