mm: export bdi_unregister
Patch series "simplify bdi unregistation". This series simplifies the BDI code to get rid of the magic auto-unregister feature that hid a recent block layer refcounting bug. This patch (of 5): To wind down the magic auto-unregister semantics we'll need to push this into modular code.
