Subject: mm: use filemap_range_needs_writeback() for O_DIRECT reads
For the generic page cache read helper, use the better variant of checking
for the need to call filemap_write_and_wait_range() when doing O_DIRECT
reads. This avoids falling back to the slow path for IOCB_NOWAIT, if
there are no pages to wait for (or write out).
