afs: Make afs_write_begin() avoid writing to a page that's being stored
Make afs_write_begin() wait for a page that's marked PG_writeback because:
(1) We need to avoid interference with the data being stored so that the
data on the server ends up in a defined state.
(2) page->private is used to track the window of dirty data within a page,
but it's also used by the storage code to track what's being written,
being cleared by the completion notification. Ownership can't be
relinquished by the storage code until completion because it a store
fails, the data must be remarked dirty.
Tracing shows something like the following (edited):
x86_64-linux-gn-15940 [1] afs_page_dirty: vn=ffff8800bef33800 9c75 begin 0-125
kworker/u8:3-114 [2] afs_page_dirty: vn=ffff8800bef33800 9c75 store+ 0-125
x86_64-linux-gn-15940 [1] afs_page_dirty: vn=ffff8800bef33800 9c75 begin 0-2052

kworker/u8:3-114 [2] afs_page_dirty: vn=ffff8800bef33800 9c75 WARN 0-0
The clear (completion) corresponding to the store+ (store continuation from
a previous page) happens between the second begin (afs_write_begin) and the
store corresponding to that. This results in the second store not seeing
any data to write back, leading to the following warning:
