Recent work in the pgio layer made it possible for there to be more than one
request per page. This caused a subtle change in commit behavior, because
write.c:nfs_commit_unstable_pages compares the number of *pages* waiting for
writeback against the number of requests on a commit list to choose when to
send a COMMIT in a non-blocking flush.
This is probably hard to hit in normal operation - you have to be using
rsize/wsize < PAGE_SIZE, or pnfs with lots of boundaries that are not page
aligned to have a noticeable change in behavior.

There is one portion of this patch that I'm not 100% on - the blocklayout
portion. It seems to be using the (old) nfsi->npages as a count of how many
contiguous *whole* pages are in use, but that's never been what nfsi->npages
was counting -- it would be incremented if just one byte of a page was in use,
but should be contiguous (as enforced by nfs_flush_incompatible).
Trond things that simply using the new nfsi->nrequests is ok here, because
the block layout should always be using requests > PAGE_SIZE. Any blocklayout
experts have an opinion? CCing Christoph...
