mm: bdi: move statistics to debugfs

Move BDI statistics to debugfs:

   /sys/kernel/debug/bdi/<bdi>/stats

Use postcore_initcall() to initialize the sysfs class and debugfs,
because debugfs is initialized in core_initcall().

Update descriptions in ABI documentation.

-Provide a place in sysfs for the backing_dev_info object.

+	mount that is prone to get stuck, or a FUSE mount which cannot
+	be trusted to play fair.
