do we still need ->is_dirty_writeback

Hi Mel,

you added the is_dirty_writeback callback a couple years ago mostly
to work around the crazy ext3 writeback code, which is long gone now.
We still use buffer_check_dirty_writeback on the block device, but
without that ext3 case we really should not need it anymore.

That leaves NFS, where I don't understand why it doesn't simply
use PageWrite?
