ext4: Optimize ext4 DIO overwrites

Browse Source 
Currently we start transaction for mapping every extent for writing
using direct IO. This is unnecessary when we know we are overwriting
already allocated blocks and the overhead of starting a transaction can
be significant especially for multithreaded workloads doing small writes.
Use iomap operations that avoid starting a transaction for direct IO
overwrites.

This improves throughput of 4k random writes - fio jobfile:
[global]
rw=randrw
norandommap=1
invalidate=0
bs=4k
numjobs=16
time_based=1
ramp_time=30
runtime=120
group_reporting=1
ioengine=psync
direct=1
size=16G
filename=file1.0.0:file1.0.1:file1.0.2:file1.0.3:file1.0.4:file1.0.5:file1.0.6:file1.0.7:file1.0.8:file1.0.9:file1.0.10:file1.0.11:file1.0.12:file1.0.13:file1.0.14:file1.0.15:file1.0.16:file1.0.17:file1.0.18:file1.0.19:file1.0.20:file1.0.21:file1.0.22:file1.0.23:file1.0.24:file1.0.25:file1.0.26:file1.0.27:file1.0.28:file1.0.29:file1.0.30:file1.0.31
file_service_type=random
nrfiles=32

from 3018MB/s to 4059MB/s in my test VM running test against simulated
pmem device (note that before iomap conversion, this workload was able
to achieve 3708MB/s because old direct IO path avoided transaction start
for overwrites as well). For dax, the win is even larger improving
throughput from 3042MB/s to 4311MB/s.
