Review fs/fs-writeback.c bdi_split_work_to_wbs
The CONFIG_CGROUP_WRITEBACK version contains this line
        base_work->auto_free = 0;
Which seems like a strange place to set auto_free as
it is not where the rest of base_work is initialized.

In the default version of bdi_split_work_to_wbs, if a
successful malloc happens, base_work is copied and
auto_free is set to 1, else the base_work is
copied to another local valarible and its auto_free
is set to 0.

So move the clearing of auto_free to the
initialization of the local base_work structures.
