writeback: fix obtain a reference to a freeing memcg css

The caller of wb_get_create() should pin the memcg, because
wb_get_create() relies on this guarantee. The rcu read lock
only can guarantee that the memcg css returned by css_from_id()
cannot be released, but the reference of the memcg can be zero.

  rcu_read_lock()
  memcg_css = css_from_id()
  wb_get_create(memcg_css)
      cgwb_create(memcg_css)
          // css_get can change the ref counter from 0 back to 1
          css_get(memcg_css)
  rcu_read_unlock()

Fix it by holding a reference to the css before calling
wb_get_create(). This is not a problem I encountered in the
real world. Just the result of a code review.
