If the blocks have been allocated, we just write these block directly.
If these blocks have not been allocated, that means we need to allocate these block firstly before write,
this allocation will bring the IO invoking be blocked, if the upper application does not want take this kind of overhead,
he can pass a nowait flag to avoid and return immediately with a -EAGAIN error.
