David Howells e1b1240c1f netfs: Add write_begin helper
Add a helper to do the pre-reading work for the netfs write_begin address
space op.

Changes
v6:
- Fixed a missing rreq put in netfs_write_begin()[3].
- Use DEFINE_READAHEAD()[4].

v5:
- Made the wait for PG_fscache in netfs_write_begin() killable[2].

v4:
- Added flag to netfs_subreq_terminated() to indicate that the caller may
  have been running async and stuff that might sleep needs punting to a
  workqueue (can't use in_softirq()[1]).

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
