writeback: Add tracing to write_cache_pages
Add a trace event to the ->writepage loop in write_cache_pages to give visibility into how the ->writepage call is changing variables within the writeback control structure. Of most interest is how wbc->nr_to_write changes from call to call, especially with filesystems that write multiple pages in ->writepage.
