This idea is from ext4. By this patch, we can make the dio write parallel,
and improve the performance.

We needn't worry about the race between dio write and truncate, because the
truncate need wait untill all the dio write end.

And we also needn't worry about the race between dio write and punch hole,
because we have extent lock to protect our operation.

I ran fio to test the performance of this feature.

== Hardware ==
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU     E7500  @ 2.93GHz
Mem: 2GB
SSD: Intel X25-M 120GB (Test Partition: 60GB)

== config file ==
[global]
ioengine=psync
direct=1
bs=4k
size=32G
runtime=60
directory=/mnt/btrfs/
filename=testfile
group_reporting
thread

[file1]
numjobs=1 # 2 4
rw=randwrite

== result (KBps) ==
write	1	2	4
lock	24936	24738	24726
nolock	24962	30866	32101

== result (iops) ==
write	1	2	4
lock	6234	6184	6181
nolock	6240	7716	8025
