The helper was introduced in 'commit 8236b0ae31 ("bdi: wake up
concurrent wb_shutdown() callers.")' as a generic way of doing the same
sequence of operations:
clear_bit_unlock();
smp_mb__after_atomic();
wake_up_bit();
The helper was first implemented to avoid bugs caused by forgetting to
call `wake_up_bit()` after `clear_bit_unlock()`. Replace the open-coded
sequence with the helper to avoid duplicate code and reduce code paths
to maintain.
