[PATCH] block: remove plugging at buffered write time

[Wu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com>]

Buffered write(2) is not directly tied to IO, so it's not suitable to
handle plug in generic_file_aio_write().

Also remove the redundant plug calls around ->direct_IO(), since we now
do unplugging in the lower layer do_blockdev_direct_IO().
