From: chenqiwu <chenqiwu@xxxxxxxxxx>
Apparently our current rwsem code doesn't like doing the trylock, then
lock for real scheme. So change our direct write method to just do the
trylock for the RWF_NOWAIT case.
This seems to fix AIM7 regression in some scalable filesystems upto ~25%
in some cases. Claimed in commit 942491c9e6d6 ("xfs: fix AIM7 regression")
