Rather then creating this bdev_balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() just for
MTD perhaps we can have here (and in other functions):
...
mapping = folio_mapping(folio);
folio_unlock(folio);
if (mapping)
balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited(mapping);
What do you think? Because when we are working with the folios it is rather
natural to use their mapping for dirty balancing?
