Subject: [FSAIO][PATCH 2/8] Rename __lock_page to lock_page_slow


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.
