fs-writeback: writeback_sb_inodes：Recalculate 'wrote' according skipped pages

Browse Source 
Commit 505a666ee3 ("writeback: plug writeback in wb_writeback() and
writeback_inodes_wb()") has us holding a plug during wb_writeback, which
may cause a potential ABBA dead lock:

    wb_writeback		fat_file_fsync
blk_start_plug(&plug)
for (;;) {
  iter i-1: some reqs have been added into plug->mq_list  // LOCK A
  iter i:
    progress = __writeback_inodes_wb(wb, work)
    . writeback_sb_inodes // fat's bdev
    .   __writeback_single_inode
    .   . generic_writepages
    .   .   __block_write_full_page
    .   .   . . 	    __generic_file_fsync
    .   .   . . 	      sync_inode_metadata
    .   .   . . 	        writeback_single_inode
    .   .   . . 		  __writeback_single_inode
    .   .   . . 		    fat_write_inode
    .   .   . . 		      __fat_write_inode
    .   .   . . 		        sync_dirty_buffer	// fat's bdev
    .   .   . . 			  lock_buffer(bh)	// LOCK B
    .   .   . . 			    submit_bh
    .   .   . . 			      blk_mq_get_tag	// LOCK A
    .   .   . trylock_buffer(bh)  // LOCK B
    .   .   .   redirty_page_for_writepage
    .   .   .     wbc->pages_skipped++
    .   .   --wbc->nr_to_write
    .   wrote += write_chunk - wbc.nr_to_write  // wrote > 0
    .   requeue_inode
    .     redirty_tail_locked
    if (progress)    // progress > 0
      continue;
  iter i+1:
      queue_io
      // similar process with iter i, infinite for-loop !
}
blk_finish_plug(&plug)   // flush plug won't be called

Above process triggers a hungtask like:

In my test, 'need_resched()' (which is imported by 590dca3a71 "fs-writeback:
unplug before cond_resched in writeback_sb_inodes") in function
'writeback_sb_inodes()' seldom comes true, unless cond_resched() is deleted
from write_cache_pages().

Fix it by correcting wrote number according number of skipped pages
in writeback_sb_inodes().
