Provide a flag whereby a filesystem may request that cifs_perform_write()
perform write-through caching. This involves putting pages directly into
writeback rather than dirty and attaching them to a write operation as we
go.
Further, the writes being made are limited to the byte range being written
rather than whole folios being written. This can be used by cifs, for
example, to deal with strict byte-range locking.
This can't be used with content encryption as that may require expansion of
the write RPC beyond the write being made.
This doesn't affect writes via mmap - those are written back in the normal
way; similarly failed writethrough writes are marked dirty and left to
writeback to retry. Another option would be to simply invalidate them, but
the contents can be simultaneously accessed by read() and through mmap.

Make netfslib pass the maximum length to the ->prepare_write() op to tell
the cache how much it can expand the length of a write to. This allows a
write to the server at the end of a file to be limited to a few bytes
whilst writing an entire block to the cache (something required by direct
I/O).

Implement support for unbuffered writes and direct I/O writes. If the
write is misaligned with respect to the fscrypt block size, then RMW cycles
are performed if necessary. DIO writes are a special case of unbuffered
writes with extra restriction imposed, such as block size alignment
requirements.
Also provide a field that can tell the code to add some extra space onto
the bounce buffer for use by the filesystem in the case of a
content-encrypted file.

Dispatch one or more write reqeusts to process a writeback slice, where a
slice is tailored more to logical block divisions within the file (such as
crypto blocks, an object layout or cache granules) than the protocol RPC
maximum capacity.
The dispatch doesn't happen until throttling allows, at which point the
entire writeback slice is processed and queued. A slice may be written to
multiple destinations (one or more servers and the local cache) and the
writes to each destination might be split up along different lines.
The writeback slice holds the required folios pinned. An iov_iter is
provided in netfs_write_request that describes the buffer to be used. This
may be part of the pagecache, may have auxiliary padding pages attached or
may be a bounce buffer resulting from crypto or compression. Consequently,
the filesystem must not twiddle the folio markings directly.
The following API is available to the filesystem:
(1) The ->create_write_requests() method is called to ask the filesystem
to create the requests it needs. This is passed the writeback slice
to be processed.
(2) The filesystem should then call netfs_create_write_request() to create
the requests it needs.
(3) Once a request is initialised, netfs_queue_write_request() can be
called to dispatch it asynchronously, if not completed immediately.
(4) netfs_write_request_completed() should be called to note the
completion of a request.
(5) netfs_get_write_request() and netfs_put_write_request() are provided
to refcount a request. These take constants from the netfs_wreq_trace
enum for logging into ftrace.
(6) The ->free_write_request is method is called to ask the filesystem to
clean up a request.
