Brian Behlendorf 5547c2f1bf 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.
