writeback: harmonize writeback threads naming

Browse Source 
The write-back code mixes words "thread" and "task" for the same things. This
is not a big deal, but still an inconsistency.

hch: a convention I tend to use and I've seen in various places
is to always use _task for the storage of the task_struct pointer,
and thread everywhere else.  This especially helps with having
foo_thread for the actual thread and foo_task for a global
variable keeping the task_struct pointer

This patch renames:
* 'bdi_add_default_flusher_task()' -> 'bdi_add_default_flusher_thread()'
* 'bdi_forker_task()'              -> 'bdi_forker_thread()'

because bdi threads are 'bdi_writeback_thread()', so these names are more
consistent.

This patch also amends commentaries and makes them refer the forker and bdi
threads as "thread", not "task".

Also, while on it, make 'bdi_add_default_flusher_thread()' declaration use
'static void' instead of 'void static' and make checkpatch.pl happy.
