iomap: Allow filesystem to call iomap_dio_complete without i_rwsem
This is to avoid the deadlock caused in btrfs because of O_DIRECT | O_DSYNC. Filesystems such as btrfs require i_rwsem while performing sync on a file. iomap_dio_rw() is called under i_rw_sem. This leads to a deadlock because of: iomap_dio_complete() generic_write_sync() btrfs_sync_file() Separate out iomap_dio_complete() from iomap_dio_rw(), so filesystems can call iomap_dio_complete() after unlocking i_rwsem.
