vfs: Rename end_writeback() to clear_inode()

After we moved inode_sync_wait() from end_writeback() it doesn't make sense
to call the function end_writeback() anymore. Rename it to clear_inode()
which well says what the function really does - set I_CLEAR flag.

fs: simplify the blockdev_direct_IO prototype

Simple filesystems always pass inode->i_sb_bdev as the block device
argument, and never need a end_io handler. Let's simply things for
them and for my grepping activity by dropping these arguments. The
only thing not falling into that scheme is ext4, which passes and
end_io handler without needing special flags (yet), but given how
messy the direct I/O code there is use of __blockdev_direct_IO
in one instead of two out of three cases isn't going to make a large
difference anyway.

Tell the filesystem if we just updated timestamp (I_DIRTY_SYNC) or

needs to push out a transaction for fdatasync or not.

This is just the prototype change with no user for it yet. I plan
to push large XFS changes for the next merge window, and getting
this trivial infrastructure in this window would help a lot to avoid
tree interdependencies.

Also remove incorrect comments that ->dirty_inode can't block. That
has been changed a long time ago, and many implementations rely on it.

Before 2.6.37, referring to a nilfs object from inodes needed a

nilfs2: get rid of nilfs_sb_info structure

This directly uses sb->s_fs_info to keep a nilfs filesystem object and
fully removes the intermediate nilfs_sb_info structure. With this
change, the hierarchy of on-memory structures of nilfs will be
simplified as follows:

Before:
super_block
-> nilfs_sb_info
-> the_nilfs
-> cptree --+-> nilfs_root (current file system)
+-> nilfs_root (snapshot A)
+-> nilfs_root (snapshot B)
:
-> nilfs_sc_info (log writer structure)
After:
super_block
-> the_nilfs
-> cptree --+-> nilfs_root (current file system)
+-> nilfs_root (snapshot A)
+-> nilfs_root (snapshot B)
:
-> nilfs_sc_info (log writer structure)

The reason why we didn't design so from the beginning is because the
initial shape also differed from the above. The early hierachy was
composed of "per-mount-point" super_block -> nilfs_sb_info pairs and a
shared nilfs object. On the kernel 2.6.37, it was changed to the
current shape in order to unify super block instances into one per
device, and this cleanup became applicable as the result.

nilfs2: tighten restrictions on inode flags

Nilfs has few rectrictions on which flags may be set on which inodes
like ext2/3/4 filesystems used to be. Specifically DIRSYNC may only
be set on directories and IMMUTABLE and APPEND may not be set on
links. Tighten that to disallow TOPDIR being set on non-directories
and only NODUMP and NOATIME to be set on non-regular file,
non-directories.

This introduces a flags masking function like those of extN and uses
it during inode creation.

Although nilfs does not support atime yet, touch_atime() still safely
