[PATCH 3.10 11/34] writeback: add missing INITIAL_JIFFIES init in global_update_bandwidth()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

commit 7d70e15480c0450d2bfafaad338a32e884fc215e upstream.

global_update_bandwidth() uses static variable update_time as the
timestamp for the last update but forgets to initialize it to
INITIALIZE_JIFFIES.

This means that global_dirty_limit will be 5 mins into the future on
32bit and some large amount jiffies into the past on 64bit.  This
isn't critical as the only effect is that global_dirty_limit won't be
updated for the first 5 mins after booting on 32bit machines,
especially given the auxiliary nature of global_dirty_limit's role -
protecting against global dirty threshold's sudden dips; however, it
does lead to unintended suboptimal behavior.  Fix it.
