Maintain i_dio_count for all filesystems, not just those using DIO_LOCKING. This these filesystems to also protect truncate against direct I/O requests by using common code. Right now the only non-DIO_LOCKING filesystem that appears to do so is XFS, which uses an opencoded variant of the i_dio_count scheme. Behaviour doesn't change for filesystems never calling inode_dio_wait, which are all that never use DIO_LOCKING. For ext4 behaviour changes with the dioread_nonlock option, which previous was missing any protection between truncate and direct I/O reads. For ocfs2 that handcrafted i_dio_count manipulations are replaced with the common code noew available. As a result inode_dio_wake can now be made static in direct-io.c.
