xfs: avoid direct I/O write vs buffered I/O race

commit c58cb165 upstream.

Currently a buffered reader or writer can add pages to the pagecache
while we are waiting for the iolock in xfs_file_dio_aio_write.  Prevent
this by re-checking mapping->nrpages after we got the iolock, and if
nessecary upgrade the lock to exclusive mode.  To simplify this a bit
only take the ilock inside of xfs_file_aio_write_checks.
