There are three flags that control Write Booster Feature:

    1. WB ON/OFF
    2. WB Hibern Flush ON/OFF (implicitly)
    3. WB Flush ON/OFF (explicit)

In the case of "Hibern Flush", one of the conditions for flush WB buffer is
that avail_wb_buff < wb_flush_threshold.

As we know, different users have different requirements for power
consumption and performance. Therefore, we need the ability to manually set
wb_flush_threshold, so that users can easily and flexibly adjust the
wb_flush_threshold value, thereby achieving a balance between power
consumption and performance.

So the sysfs attribute that controls this is necessary.

wb_flush_threshold represents the threshold for flushing WB buffer, whose
value expressed in unit of 10% granularity, such as '1' representing 10%,
'2' representing 20%, and so on.
