writeback: Wake up waiting tasks when finishing the writeback of a chunk.

Writing back a large number of pages can take a lots of time.
This issue is exacerbated when the underlying device is slow or
subject to block layer rate limiting, which in turn triggers
unexpected hung task warnings.

We can trigger a wake-up once a chunk has been written back and the
waiting time for writeback exceeds half of
sysctl_hung_task_timeout_secs.
This action allows the hung task detector to be aware of the writeback
progress, thereby eliminating these unexpected hung task warnings.

This patch has passed the xfstests 'check -g quick' test based on ext4,
with no additional failures introduced.
