dm bufio: check new buffer allocation watermark every 30 seconds

commit 390020ad upstream.

dm-bufio checks a watermark when it allocates a new buffer in
__bufio_new().  However, it doesn't check the watermark when the user
changes /sys/module/dm_bufio/parameters/max_cache_size_bytes.

This may result in a problem - if the watermark is high enough so that
all possible buffers are allocated and if the user lowers the value of
"max_cache_size_bytes", the watermark will never be checked against the
new value because no new buffer would be allocated.

To fix this, change __evict_old_buffers() so that it checks the
watermark.  __evict_old_buffers() is called every 30 seconds, so if the
user reduces "max_cache_size_bytes", dm-bufio will react to this change
within 30 seconds and decrease memory consumption.
