With this patch v9fs_fid_readpage takes a void pointer that must be
a FID, and we pass the FID everywhere:

- v9fs_vfs_readpage passes filp->private_data
- v9fs_vfs_readpages passes filp->private_data through
read_cache_pages
- v9fs_write_begin passes the local fid variable

Except that we don't pass v9fs_vfs_readpage as the filler any more,
we now pass v9fs_fid_readpage.
