Subject: [PATCH 14/28] CacheFiles: Be consistent about the use of mapping vs
	file->f_mapping in Ext3 [try #2]

Change all the usages of file->f_mapping in ext3_*write_end() functions to use
the mapping argument directly.  This has two consequences:

 (*) Consistency.  Without this patch sometimes one is used and sometimes the
     other is.

 (*) A NULL file pointer can be passed.  This feature is then made use of by
     the generic hook in the next patch, which is used by CacheFiles to write
     pages to a file without setting up a file struct.
