xfs: implement CoW for directio writes
For O_DIRECT writes to shared blocks, we have to CoW them just like
we would with buffered writes. For writes that are not block-aligned,
just bounce them to the page cache.
For block-aligned writes, however, we can do better than that. Use
the same mechanisms that we employ for buffered CoW to set up a
delalloc reservation, allocate all the blocks at once, issue the
writes against the new blocks and use the same ioend functions to
remap the blocks after the write. This should be fairly performant.
Christoph discovered that xfs_reflink_allocate_cow_range may stumble
over invalid entries in the extent array given that it drops the ilock
but still expects the index to be stable. Simple fixing it to a new
lookup for every iteration still isn't correct given that
xfs_bmapi_allocate will trigger a BUG_ON() if hitting a hole, and
there is nothing preventing a xfs_bunmapi_cow call removing extents
once we dropped the ilock either.
This patch duplicates the inner loop of xfs_bmapi_allocate into a
helper for xfs_reflink_allocate_cow_range so that it can be done under
the same ilock critical section as our CoW fork delayed allocation.
The directio CoW warts will be revisited in a later patch.
