nilfs2: fix dirty page accounting leak causing hang at write
Bruno Prémont and Dunphy, Bill noticed me that NILFS will certainly hang on ARM-based targets. I found this was caused by an underflow of dirty pages counter. A b-tree cache routine was marking page dirty without adjusting page account information. This fixes the dirty page accounting leak and resolves the hang on arm-based targets.
