vfs: Rename generic_file_aio_write_nolock
generic_file_aio_write_nolock() is now used only by block devices and raw character device. Filesystems should use __generic_file_aio_write() in case generic_file_aio_write() doesn't suit them. So rename the function to blkdev_aio_write() and move it to fs/blockdev.c. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
