[PATCH 3/8] block: enable RWF_DONTCACHE for block devices

[Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>]

From: Tal Zussman <tz2294@columbia.edu>

Block device buffered reads and writes already pass through
filemap_read() and iomap_file_buffered_write() respectively, both of
which handle IOCB_DONTCACHE. Enable RWF_DONTCACHE for block device files
by setting FOP_DONTCACHE in def_blk_fops.

For CONFIG_BUFFER_HEAD=y paths, add block_write_begin_iocb() which
threads the kiocb through so that buffer_head-based I/O can use
DONTCACHE behavior. The existing block_write_begin() is preserved as a
wrapper that passes a NULL iocb. Set BIO_COMPLETE_IN_TASK in
submit_bh_wbc() when the folio has dropbehind so that buffer_head
writeback completions get deferred to task context.

CONFIG_BUFFER_HEAD=n paths are handled by the previously added iomap
BIO_COMPLETE_IN_TASK support.

This support is useful for databases that operate on raw block devices,
among other userspace applications.
