[PATCH RFC 0/8] fs: introduce super write guard

[Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>]

Hey,

I'm in the process of adding a few more guards for vfs constructs.
I've chosen the easy case of super_start_write() and super_end_write()
and converted eligible callers. I think long-term we can move a lot of
the manual placement to completely rely on guards - where sensible.
