We're also missing a call to __set_page_dirty_nobuffers().  This
matters to nobody right now -- erofs is read-only and gfs2 only
supports inline data in the inode.  I presume what is happening
for gfs2 is that at inode writeback time, it copies the ~60 bytes
from the page cache into the inode and then schedules the inode
for writeback.

But logically, we should mark the page as dirty.  It'll be marked
as dirty by ->mkwrite, should the page be mmaped, so gfs2 must
already cope with a dirty page for inline data.
