[RFC PATCH 29/53] netfs: Implement buffered write API

[David Howells]

Institute a netfs write helper, netfs_file_write_iter(), to be pointed at
by the network filesystem ->write_iter() call.  Make it handled buffered
writes by calling the previously defined netfs_perform_write() to copy the
source data into the pagecache.

+ * The caller must hold appropriate locks around this function and have called
+ * generic_write_checks() already.  The caller is also responsible for doing

+ * A caller has to handle it. This is mainly due to the fact that we want to
+ * avoid syncing under i_rwsem.
