Flag IOMAP_ATOMIC_SW is not really required. The idea of having this flag
is that the FS ->iomap_begin callback could check if this flag is set to
decide whether to do a SW (FS-based) atomic write. But the FS can set
which ->iomap_begin callback it wants when deciding to do a FS-based
atomic write.
Furthermore, it was thought that IOMAP_ATOMIC_HW is not a proper name, as
the block driver can use SW-methods to emulate an atomic write. So change
back to IOMAP_ATOMIC.
The ->iomap_begin callback needs though to indicate to iomap core that
REQ_ATOMIC needs to be set, so add IOMAP_F_ATOMIC_BIO for that.
These changes were suggested by Christoph Hellwig and Dave Chinner.
