[PATCH] zoned vm counters: conversion of nr_dirty to per zone counter

This makes nr_dirty a per zone counter.  Looping over all processors is
avoided during writeback state determination.

The counter aggregation for nr_dirty had to be undone in the NFS layer since
we summed up the page counts from multiple zones.  Someone more familiar with
NFS should probably review what I have done.
