ocfs2: add ocfs2_write_type_t type to identify the caller of write
Patchset: fix ocfs2 direct io code patch to support sparse file and data ordering semantics The idea is to use buffer io(more precisely use the interface ocfs2_write_begin_nolock & ocfs2_write_end_nolock) to do the zero work beyond block size. And clear UNWRITTEN flag until direct io data has been written to disk, which can prevent data corruption when system crashed during direct write. And we will also archive a better performance: eg. dd direct write new file with block size 4KB: before this patchset: 2.5 MB/s after this patchset: 66.4 MB/s This patch (of 8): To support direct io in ocfs2_write_begin_nolock & ocfs2_write_end_nolock. Remove unused args filp & flags. Add new arg type. The type is one of buffer/direct/mmap. Indicate 3 way to perform write. buffer/mmap type has implemented. direct type will be implemented later.
