mm/page-writeback: raise wb_thresh to prevent write blocking with strictlimit
With the strictlimit flag, wb_thresh acts as a hard limit in
balance_dirty_pages() and wb_position_ratio(). When device write
operations are inactive, wb_thresh can drop to 0, causing writes to be
blocked. The issue occasionally occurs in fuse fs, particularly with
network backends, the write thread is blocked frequently during a period.
To address it, this patch raises the minimum wb_thresh to a controllable
level, similar to the non-strictlimit case.
