CPU hotplug, writeback: Don't call writeback_set_ratelimit() too often during hotplug
The CPU hotplug callback related to writeback calls writeback_set_ratelimit()
during every state change in the hotplug sequence. This is unnecessary
since num_online_cpus() changes only once during the entire hotplug operation.
So invoke the function only once per hotplug, thereby avoiding the
unnecessary repetition of those costly calculations.
