Subject: [patch 2/5] fs: introduce new aops and infrastructure

Introduce write_begin, write_end, and perform_write aops.

These are intended to replace prepare_write and commit_write with more
flexible alternatives that are also able to avoid the buffered write
deadlock problems efficiently (which prepare_write is unable to do).
