Once we have grabbed i_mutex, this will prevent any other writes from
proceeding, so we don't need to worry about any writes to unwritten
regions from taking place. So drop the aio_mutex so that if there are
any other parallel writes happen to some other inode that happens to
hash to the same hash table entry, we won't end up blocking that work.
