[XFS] Fix race in xfs_write() between direct and buffered I/O with DMAPI
The iolock is dropped and re-acquired around the call to XFS_SEND_NAMESP().
While the iolock is released the file can become cached. We then
'goto retry' and - if we are doing direct I/O - mapping->nrpages may now be
non zero but need_i_mutex will be zero and we will hit the WARN_ON().
Since we have dropped the I/O lock then the file size may have also changed
so what we need to do here is 'goto start' like we do for the XFS_SEND_DATA()
DMAPI event.
We also need to update the filesize before releasing the iolock so that
needs to be done before the XFS_SEND_NAMESP event. If we drop the iolock
before setting the filesize we could race with a truncate.
