Hey Linus,

/* Summary */
This reworks the netfslib writeback implementation so that pages read
from the cache are written to the cache through ->writepages(), thereby
allowing the fscache page flag to be retired.

The reworking also:

 (1) builds on top of the new writeback_iter() infrastructure;

 (2) makes it possible to use vectored write RPCs as discontiguous streams
     of pages can be accommodated;

 (3) makes it easier to do simultaneous content crypto and stream division.

 (4) provides support for retrying writes and re-dividing a stream;

 (5) replaces the ->launder_folio() op, so that ->writepages() is used
     instead;

 (6) uses mempools to allocate the netfs_io_request and netfs_io_subrequest
     structs to avoid allocation failure in the writeback path.

Some code that uses the fscache page flag is retained for compatibility
purposes with nfs and ceph. The code is switched to using the synonymous
private_2 label instead and marked with deprecation comments.

The merge commit contains additional details on the new algorithm that
I've left out of here as it would probably be excessively detailed.

On top of the netfslib infrastructure this contains the work to convert
cifs over to netfslib.
