Catch filesystems lacking s_bdi

Browse Source 
noop_backing_dev_info is used only as a flag to mark filesystems that
don't have any backing store, like tmpfs, procfs, spufs, etc.

Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@logfs.org>

Changed the BUG_ON() to a WARN_ON(). Note that adding dirty inodes
to the noop_backing_dev_info is not legal and will not result in
them being flushed, but we already catch this condition in
__mark_inode_dirty() when checking for a registered bdi.
