From: Goldwyn Rodrigues <rgoldwyn@xxxxxxxx> This is similar to 942491c9e6d6 ("xfs: fix AIM7 regression") Apparently our current rwsem code doesn't like doing the trylock, then lock for real scheme. So change our read/write methods to just do the trylock for the RWF_NOWAIT case. We don't need a check for IOCB_NOWAIT and !direct-IO because it is checked in generic_write_checks().
