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.
