inode_to_wb() is used also for filesystems that don't support cgroup
writeback. For these filesystems inode->i_wb is stable during the
lifetime of the inode (it points to bdi->wb) and there's no need to hold
locks protecting the inode->i_wb dereference. Improve the warning in
inode_to_wb() to not trigger for these filesystems.
