These functions are no longer useful as the only bdis that report
congestion are in ceph, fuse, and nfs.  None of those bdis can be the
target of the calls in drbd, ext2, nilfs2, or xfs.

Removing the test on bdi_write_contested() in current_may_throttle()
could cause a small change in behaviour, but only when PF_LOCAL_THROTTLE
is set.

So replace the calls by 'false' and simplify the code - and remove the
functions.
