Hi Steve,

this series tries to remove the ->writepage method from cifs, as there
is no good reason for the method to exist anymore and we're trying to
remove it entirely.

The series is entirely untested as I don't have a CIFS setup at the
moment, and patch 2 is a bit crude and there might be much better
ways to handle the small wsize case.
