I rewrote this a bit, so we won't have to do the thing in two passes, which
makes it simpler and more robust. Waiting for page writeback here is wrong
anyway, see comment above fuse_page_mkwrite(). BTW we had a race there because
fuse_page_mkwrite() didn't take the page lock. I've also fixed that up and
pushed a series containing these patches up to implementing ->writepages() to
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/fuse.git writepages
Passed some trivial testing but more is needed.
I'll get to the rest of the patches next week.
Thanks,
Miklos

The .writepages one is required to make each writeback request carry more than
one page on it. The patch enables optimized behaviour unconditionally,
i.e. mmap-ed writes will benefit from the patch even if fc->writeback_cache=0.
