mm/page_alloc: remove the throttling logic from the page allocator

The page allocator stalls based on the number of pages that are waiting
for writeback to start but this should now be redundant.
shrink_inactive_list() will wake flusher threads if the LRU tail are
unqueued dirty pages so the flusher should be active.  If it fails to
make progress due to pages under writeback not being completed quickly
then it should stall on VMSCAN_THROTTLE_WRITEBACK.
