Subject: [PATCH 5/6] fs: Remove noop_set_page_dirty()

Use __set_page_dirty_no_writeback() instead.  This will set the dirty
bit on the page, which will be used to avoid calling set_page_dirty()
in the future.  It will have no effect on actually writing the page
back, as the pages are not on any LRU lists.
