md: expose max value of behind writes counter
Keep track of the maximum number of concurrent write-behind requests
for an md array and exposed this number in sysfs at
md/bitmap/max_backlog_used
Writing any value to this file will clear it.
This allows userspace to be involved in tuning bitmap/backlog.
