[RFC][PATCH 03/11] Introduce generic_file_checkpoint()

[Dave Hansen <dave@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

In a bit we will introduce a f_op to do per-file
checkpointing.  But, before I do that, I want to
demonstrate how it splices in here.

So, introduce generic_file_checkpoint() and use it
only for regular files.

I'm also removing the CR_FD_DIR type.  We treat
normal files and directories the same way, so just
call it CR_FD_GENERIC to make it more clear that
we always follow the same generic behavior.
