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. Thanks,
