Add a wait queue parameter to the action routine called by
__wait_on_bit to allow it to determine whether to block or
not.

------------------------------------------------------------
In order to allow for interruptible and asynchronous versions of
lock_page in conjunction with the wait_on_bit changes, we need to
define low-level lock page routines which take an additional
argument, i.e a wait queue entry and may return non-zero status,
e.g -EINTR, -EIOCBRETRY, -EWOULDBLOCK etc. This patch renames
__lock_page to lock_page_slow, so that __lock_page and
__lock_page_slow can denote the versions which take a wait queue
parameter.

init_wait_bit_key() initializes the key field in an already
allocated wait bit structure, useful for async wait bit support.
Also separate out the wait bit test to a common routine which
can be used by different kinds of wakeup callbacks.

Allocates space for the default io wait queue entry (actually a wait
bit entry) in the task struct. Doing so simplifies the patches
for AIO wait page allowing for cleaner and more efficient
implementation, at the cost of 28 additional bytes in task struct
vs allocation on demand on-stack.
Thanks to Vatsa for helping debug and fix a problem with wait bit
initializtion.

----------------------------------------------------------
Enable wait bit based filtered wakeups to work for AIO.
Replaces the wait queue entry in the kiocb with a wait bit
structure, to allow enough space for the wait bit key.
This adds an extra level of indirection in references to the
wait queue entry in the iocb. Also, an extra check had to be
added in aio_wake_function to allow for other kinds of waiters
which do not require wait bit, based on the assumption that
the key passed in would be NULL in such cases.
Thanks to Chinmay for help with testing.

---------------------------------------------------
Define low-level page wait and lock page routines which take a
wait queue entry pointer as an additional parameter and
return status (which may be non-zero when the wait queue
parameter signifies an asynchronous wait, typically during
AIO).
Synchronous IO waits become a special case where the wait
queue parameter is the running task's default io wait context.
Asynchronous IO waits happen when the wait queue parameter
is the io wait context of a kiocb. Code paths which choose to
execute synchronous or asynchronous behaviour depending on the
called context specify the current io wait context (which points
to sync or async context as the case may be) as the wait
parameter.

Thank you for pursuing this. I apologize for not participating more
directly in the follow-up.
I also apologize for mentioning this, but I'm disturbed by current
events right now, so I won't be evaluating these in any technical
sense for at least a few days.

The main change to the wait bit code is the addition of a wait queue
argument to the action routine, and abstracting the wait bit key
check into a separate function. Rest of the stuff is mostly in aioland.
