Btrfs: add basic DIO read/write support
This provides basic DIO support for reading and writing. It does not do the work to recover from mismatching checksums, that will come later. A few design changes have been made from Jim's code (sorry Jim!) 1) Use the generic direct-io code. Jim originally re-wrote all the generic DIO code in order to account for all of BTRFS's oddities, but thanks to that work it seems like the best bet is to just ignore compression and such and just opt to fallback on buffered IO. 2) Fallback on buffered IO for compressed or inline extents. Jim's code did it's own buffering to make dio with compressed extents work. Now we just fallback onto normal buffered IO. 3) Use ordered extents for the writes so that all of the lock_extent() lookup_ordered() type checks continue to work. 4) Do the lock_extent() lookup_ordered() loop in readpage so we don't race with DIO writes. I've tested this with fsx and everything works great. This patch depends on my dio and filemap.c patches to work.
